What is Shiatsu?
Shiatsu is a massage therapy that heals by applying pressure to key areas of the body. It combines the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine with practices similar to those of acupuncture, but without needles.It combines massage, stretching, gentle physical manipulation and pressure along channels called meridians. It uses these meridians and pressure points to harmonise and balance the body’s energy, called “Qi”.
Shiatsu can assist you with your self-development and self-healing by balancing the underlying causes of a condition and addressing physical and psychological functions thus promoting health and strengthening the body’s own healing abilities. It is an holistic treatment that works on your body and mind by balancing the flow of energy to treat conditions and relieve symptoms, giving you improved strength and vitality.
Testimonials
"I came to Lucy Osborn for Shiatsu simply because my body felt sluggish and I wanted to re-energise it. I mentioned to her that for many years I had suffered from inexplicable pain in my left calf assumed to be caused by varicose veins yet when they were removed the pain continued. The pain was so acute it necessitated several neurofen-plus on a daily basis. After several sessions with Lucy, the pain that no-one else had been able to assist with completely disappeared and has never returned. It is difficult to put into words the debt that I owe her for dispensing of that pain so easily. Lucy’s professionalism, her knowledge of the body and her delightful personality cannot be recommend highly enough”. Andie, Seaforth
"I hadn't had a Shiatsu massage before but came away a convert. Lucy's deft touch was firm and her obvious knowledge of the body - even broken down bodies like mine - gives confidence. I will keep going back!" Helen , Journalist
“Shiatsu massage”?? What is that? Yes, I was quite a cynic in relation to the claimed benefits of this form of massage, but I have to admit I am now a complete convert (and self confessed addict).
Lucy is thorough in her needs analysis and certainly has had excellent results with me (she was working on mainly emotional issues due to high level work and some personal pressures). A session a week with Lucy really helped me to get through that period as I was significantly calmer, my mind was a lot clearer and decisions came a lot easier as a result.
I am very happy to recommend Lucy!"

Lucy is the best! You want more? Here goes:Last year, whilst I was going through chemotherapy and surgery, I had regular Shiatsu treatments with Lucy to help me through the debilitating side effects. These side effects came in many ways mentally as well as physically. During each treatment I was able to relax and let go. Lucy has great integrity so I was able to trust her and allow her energy to flow through. I found after each treatment a sense of calm and yet more energy. It was a very enjoyable experience and Shiatsu is a treatment I will most definitely continue."
