Are you a qualified massage therapist looking to refine your touch and enhance your practice—without straining your hands and body? Join me for a specialist Movement Shiatsu workshop designed to transform the way you work with clients!
💆♂️ What’s the focus?
This hands-on workshop will introduce The Six Forms of Touch, a powerful system developed by Bill Palmer. In Shiatsu and massage therapy, it’s not just where we touch, but how we touch that makes the difference. Each form of touch works with different meridian pathways to unlock movement, deepen awareness, and facilitate lasting change.
🚶♂️ Effortless Touch Through Movement
One of the greatest benefits of Shiatsu is that it teaches you to work without strain. Like in Aikido, you’ll learn how to use your whole body efficiently, moving from your center rather than overworking your hands. This makes your treatments more effective while protecting your own body from fatigue and injury.
🌀 You’ll learn:
✅ Interactive Touch – Engage clients in their own healing process
✅ Front Door Touch – Meet clients at their boundaries with respect
✅ Bone Touch – Work with the skeleton to release deep tension
✅ Amplifying Touch – Bring unconscious movement patterns into awareness
✅ Dancing Touch – Help resolve internal conflicts and restrictions
✅ Valuing Touch – Integrate all aspects of the self through fascia work
✅ Breathing Awareness – Use the breath to enhance touch and release
🔍 Experiential Anatomy – Learning Through Your Own Body
Rather than memorizing techniques, you’ll explore these forms of touch through Experiential Anatomy—a process of learning directly through movement, breath, and hands-on practice. This approach ensures a deep, embodied understanding that you can immediately apply to your work.
