Shiatsu ~ Energy-Bodywork
The Avalon Method of Shiatsu is a form of Energy-Bodywork that combines and uses a synthesis of techniques from a number of disciplines to make direct contact with the Energy-Body of the client. Such techniques include Zen Shiatsu, Meridian Stimulation, Structural Integration, Joint manipulation, Acupressure, Reflexology, Reiki and Chakra Balancing. Energy-Bodywork seeks to access the subtle energies beyond the physical and restore a vibrational harmony that will bring both the physical and energetic bodies back into alignment with Source Energy resulting in greater health and overall well being on all levels of your life.

Shiatsu and The “Energy-Body”
At the base of this work is the knowledge and understanding that all manifestation in this world is an end result of a vibrational expression of energy. Your life is an expression of the energy vibration that you are aligned with. All physical dis-ease is a result of this alignment. The Energy-Body is the conduit between Source Energy and the physical body. Two of the main systems within the Energy~Body are the meridians, along with their acupoints, and the chakras.
Due to the affects of living our lives the Energy-Body develops resistance and blockages which in turn disrupt the natural vibration and flow of Source Energy which cause dis-harmony in the manifestation of our physical bodies as well as in the expression of our daily lives.
The Avalon Method of Shiatsu works primarily with this Energy-Body by reducing blockages, eliminating resistance and restoring the free flow of Source Energy. Along with a grater sense of well being, other benefits of Energy-Bodywork include a deeper connection with your physical body, deep refreshing sleep and meditation, the potential for categorical breakthroughs, the release of the traumas and toxins stored in your body, reduced susceptibility to toxicity through a boosted immune system and will stimulate overall greater health, vitality and alertness.

What to expect from your Shiatsu session?
The Avalon Method of Shiatsu is practiced on a futon on the floor. The client, who remains fully clothed, is gently placed in up to five different positions during the treatment: sitting upright, lying on the left side, lying on the right side, lying on the back, and lying on the stomach. Shiatsu is applied in a rhythmic, flowing pattern using light to deep pressure along the meridians of the body, yogic stretches and simple movements to each part of the body from head to toe.
For a holistic experience, each session begins with a short intake dialog and relaxation meditation that prepares the client for their Shiatsu experience. The full body Shiatsu session will last for 1½ hours. Your Shiatsu session will end with an integrative meditation bringing the client safely back to the here and now.
Shiatsu is given fully clothed, so loose comfortable clothing, preferably of natural fibers, should be worn along with socks. No oils are used.
Each session acts as a building block, gathering momentum towards wholeness and well-being in a life which supports all aspects of the client.
