I started going to Helen about 8 months after contracting Covid and then being diagnosed with Long Covid and off work for a few months. I had always been interested in Shiatsu and decided to see if it would help me assist in my recovery. I initially rang Helen who was very informative on the phone and made me feel very at ease. So, I went for it!
Helen makes you feel very comfortable and explains fully what she is doing, encouraging you to ask questions. I do however shut my eyes and nearly drift off as I get so relaxed! The Shiatsu treatments for me have been very beneficial and after my first 6 x sessions I really noticed a difference in my energy and my lungs and breathlessness which I appear to have suffered with since Covid. I now plan on going on a monthly basis to keep myself topped up!
Helen’s professionalism but caring manner and the Shiatsu itself have really helped me get on the road to recovery. I am even doing a little Yoga..something I never thought possible at the beginning of my Long Covid.
So, thank you Helen. See you very soon…next week in fact.

I attended a shiatsu workshop with Helen and it was truly a lovely experience.
Helen was very welcoming made us all feel at ease. Her knowledge of shiatsu is amazing I learnt about different meridian channels and acupressure points and the best part was we all got to practice on each other with Helen’s guidance. I felt so relaxed, floaty and refreshed.
Helen provided us with handouts to take home.
It was a delightful session. I highly recommend Helen you will be in the best of hands .

I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and Helen was very attentive and explained everything at all times. I found that I was completely relaxed at the end of it and would recommend this to anyone who would consider a workshop perhaps before a treatment. Helen also gave us all handouts to take home for reference.

I highly recommend Helen‘s workshops. I attended one last year & it was brilliant, a perfect balance of theory & practice, a really helpful handout & my favourite bit, giving & receiving shiatsu under Helen’s expert guidance.

Helen was spot on in executing what I needed at the time and even a short session help to lower my back pain and I felt really relaxed afterwards.

So I came with an open mind, unsure what shiatsu was about or if it would be beneficial to me… I’m not sure how but last night I can only describe as the best sleep I’ve had since having my son. He woke at 3.30am & I was blissfully unaware as my partner dealt with him! This morning I felt like a new woman and found the energy to have a shower & make myself feel good with how I look as well as getting my son to nursery. Also felt happy when I’m usually tired and sluggish. I’m a fan and will need to work out when I can see you again for another treatment!!!! Thank you.

What I love most about Helen’s work is that she chose to practice shiatsu having already established herself in Western medicine. This inspires great confidence as her knowledge base takes account of both Eastern and Western thinking.
I hadn’t come across Shiatsu before and I was a little nervous about joining a workshop yet I felt instantly at ease in her company. She explained everything that was going to happen, putting it into context by giving an overview of its history. I found her hands-on technique both comforting and effective. I can’t recommend her highly enough!

I had several sessions with Helen, sometime after a major bereavement. Helen is very knowledgeable about Shiatsu and the workings of the body and she imparts relevant thoughts as she is working which can be very useful. Helen is very aware of how to help her client feel comfortable and at ease which makes the session very relaxing. I really feel that she was able to unblock some of the difficulties that I had in dealing with and accepting my situation and with allowing my grief to come through. I would happily recommend her.
