Shiatsu and Massages in Méribel

Shiatsu sessions

• What is Shiatsu?

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, energy (Qi) flows through the body through the Meridians. In an ideal world, this circulation is fluid and constant, guaranteeing inner balance and good health. But it is not always so and internal and external disturbances such as stress, emotions, various and varied pollutions come to slow down or block this flow of energy, causing pain, insomnia, illnesses…

Shiatsu proposes by finger pressure (often thumbs) on acupuncture points, by gentle mobilizations of the joints, by stretching to remove these blockages and thus activate the self-healing and self-regeneration capacity of organism (the famous Medicatrix naturae of Hippocrates) and attempt to achieve homeostasis (natural balance).

• What are the benefits of Shiatsu?

Shiatsu brings relaxation, re-centering, allows you to “enter your body”.

It has a positive effect on stress, improves sleep, is an excellent companion in certain long-term illnesses, and the list of benefits is long….

• How does a Shiatsu session take place?

A session lasts approximately 1 hour. A preliminary interview defines your expectations, your current physical and emotional state, the parts of the body to be treated with more insistence, those to be treated more gently or not to be treated at all.

The person remains dressed in a flexible and comfortable outfit.

It is imperative not to have consumed alcohol or narcotics before a session.

The care offered is not intended to replace medical treatment and should not delay a medical consultation.

Massage with oils or Gokan

• Massage with oils or Gokan

It allows you to unwind, relax, rejuvenate. It eliminates physical and moral tensions, releases energy circulation, relaxes the muscles and thus provides deep well-being. It is a journey of self-discovery.

• Amma seated massage

The Amma massage is a massage originally developed in Japan, but made famous in the 80s in the United States by David Palmer who made it the corporate massage par excellence. Steve Jobs was one of the first Silicon Valley entrepreneurs to use his services at Apple’s premises.

It is practiced in a seated position on a comfortable ergonomic chair, on a clothed person and lasts approximately 25 minutes.

This technique uses pressure on specific points, stretching, percussion on the back, shoulders, neck, skull, arms and hands. It is very effective in combating tension and pain accumulated in these areas, improves blood circulation, stimulates the immune system and brings immediate relaxation by quickly eliminating stress.

Its ease of implementation and its efficiency make it an ideal tool for companies or events.

No hesitation, contact me now for a tailor-made offer.

Dô In is an oriental health practice that uses self-massage.

The Dô In helps to prevent and restore the dysfunctions of the organism related to a bad circulation of the body energy.

Who are we ?

Originally from Méribel, I grew up with this magnificent and powerful nature. It is important in my life for my balance and my vitality.

In addition, animals have always held a privileged place for me and it is through equine Shiatsu that I discovered this discipline. It is naturally that I continued with human Shiatsu by holding the professional certification “Shiatsu Specialist”. I am also a member of the Francophone Union of Therapeutic Shiatsu Professionals and the French Federation of Traditional Shiatsu.

Regular internships allow me to refine my practice and accompany you in specific moments (Female cycle, Shiatsu and maternity – The postnatal period: Supporting the mother-baby bond with Suzanne Yates.

What seduced me in this practice is that it is very complete by combining Traditional Chinese Medicine, energy, anatomy and physiology. It takes care of the body as much as the mind.

Curious, and with the desire to offer complementary approaches around well-being, relaxation and self-knowledge, I trained in oil massage (or Gokan massage) as well as the Niromathé® method ( Soft technique used to relieve pain and acute or chronic blockages.It is inspired by the gestures practiced by ancient bonesetters in India and the West).

I have also been practicing yoga for several years and I am currently in my first year at the Evian Energy Yoga School in order to deepen my practice.

My activity is registered in the commercial register and is insured by Médinat.

Achievement and personal and professional development

We are all unique, we all have deep aspirations, talents, specificities which are not necessarily those put forward by our society, on TV or on social networks. For me, this diversity of singular people makes the richness of our world.

Accompanying people to reveal themselves and to express in their personal and professional life what they are deep within themselves is what drives me.

The support that I offer is based on my personal experience, enriched by my training as a development guide, the experience acquired in supporting people, the mobilization of appropriate tools and above all listening to what it’s happening to you in the moment. It aims to:

– Know you more deeply and reveal who you are,

– Take back your power of decision and creation,

– Create your life from you, from what deeply resonates with you,

– Dare to implement changes, the new in your daily life.

These are, in my opinion, the keys to having a fulfilling, rich and inspiring life.

This can take the form of individual sessions, workshops, internships or retreats. As you will discover, I offer some outdoor activities. I particularly appreciate being in contact with nature, which is conducive to slowing down, finding oneself and recharging one’s batteries.
