Catheryn Whyte Shiatsu Therapist

Shiatsu is a form of Japanese therapeutic bodywork meaning “finger pressure” and is based on the principles of Traditional Chinese medicine. Shiatsu utilises a deep, slow pressure to remove any blockages in the body’s energy flow. Shiatsu is relaxing and deeply calming in nature, yet highly dynamic in effect to restore balance. The human body has the ability to self-heal, and this is truly powerful when stimulated.

Shiatsu is highly effective in the treatment of any one of the following conditions:

• Headaches and migraines


• Tiredness and lack of motivation


• Digestive problems


• Trauma, accidents and whiplash


• Weak immune system


• General wellbeing


• Stress, tension and emotional distress


• Back, neck and shoulder tension


• Support during pregnancy and postnatal recovery


• Cold, flu and or respiratory problems


• Muscular aches and pains

Baby Shiatsu is an amazing, non-invasive and safe way to support your baby’s development and lay the foundation for a healthy life. It develops a strong sense of safety to enhance the bond between baby and mother.

Through the treatment, techniques are shared on how to correctly handle your baby, and utilise gentle touch and pressure point massage to ease simple discomforts such as sleeping difficulties and wind pain. These techniques encourage communication and bonding, and can also assist with strengthening the immune system, calming your baby and supporting the development of perception and movement.
