A holistic approach is at the root of one’s way to balance
She encourages listening and trusting the body’s natural ways. It leads to living self-connected and centered, yet open and flexible. One can improve resiliency by tuning into one’s self-regulatory body processes.

Shiatsu
In Japanese SHI means “Fingers” and ATSU “Pressure”. This therapy finds its origins in Taoism Philosophy and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Shiatsu aims to release tensions from the body and mind in helping Yin and Yang energies of the body to flow freely.
It supports the body’s self-regulation and vitality
A holistic view of the receiver combined with the practitioner 2 hands working in synchronization with pressure that is deep, stable and slowly moving along the body awaken the body’s innate healing ability, to release emotional, mental, and physical blockages, and to restore life essence and present awareness.
This simple, meditative, non-doing, healing touch can open hearts, tone chakras, restore peace, and connect us with our inner wisdom. People often compare it to micro-osteopathy and experience it as “relaxing, nurturing, non-invasive and deeply therapeutic”.
Shiatsu is especially helpful with:
• Neck, shoulder and back pain
• Reduced mobility and joint pain
• Headaches and migraine
• Digestive problems
• Sleeping disorders
• Asthmatic symptoms
• Depression, anxiety and stress related symptoms
• Menstrual problems, regulation of menstrual cycle and pregnancy
• Lethargy and fluid retention
• Improving energy and well-being
Seiki
What is Seiki?
Seiki is a method of healing that facilitates the flow of energy through the body, clearing energy blockages and creating an awareness of energy flows - A Way.
Founded by Akinobu Kishi Sensei, Seiki is the flowering of his immense experience in Shiatsu and wisdom. in a long tradition of Japanese healing and spiritual practice and, non-culture specific as its main intention is to become more of ourselves. Since central to it is the injunction to become more ourselves, it is, at base, non-culture specific too.
Seiki incorporates bodywork treatments, Katsugen spontaneous movement and, most importantly, space to experience and enjoy life as embodied human beings breathing again.
Fundamentally, Seiki treats the breath. By following the movement of the breath, the body rediscovers its space, its originality. It is the simplest and purest form of healing I have ever experienced. Seiki provides the space for encouraging inner awareness and sensitivity, recognition that the body always expresses what it needs, essential for making connections and noticing the undetected – an absolute necessity for clearing stagnant energy and releasing habitual patterns.

Customer Testimonials
We support you in your journey to HEAL, GROW and FIND BLISS
Anne has a very sensitive and exceptional ability to listen to what the body presents and it is easy to relax in her nurturing, reassuring and confident presence. In her therapeutic work she includes both Shiatsu and Somatic Bodywork, which she can combine skilfully and beautifully. I have found the combination to have a very powerful and supportive effect – especially her verbal guidance brings a deep body/mind relaxation, integration and awareness. Shiatsu can release physical, emotional and mental tension or blockages through the stimulation of specific points on the Asian acupressure meridian system. This stimulation of both the (lack) yin and (excess) yang energy presented in the body and organs helps to balance and restore the body’s innate healing ability. As in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shiatsu both facilitates the body to resolve and prevent pain and illness. Through Somatic Bodywork, Anne guides your body through subtle, natural movements to restore and resolve blockages or even trauma that has been consciously or unconsciously stored in the body. This movement therapy gently and safely guides you to increase your ability to tolerate difficult bodily sensations and suppressed emotions, which is very helpful during pregnancy and especially birth. The treatment continues to work, as in Osteopathy and other therapeutic bodywork, and will take its natural time to integrate and settle in the newness of your balanced body for a few days after the treatment. It is therefore important to wait a few days after the treatment before doing any other therapeutic bodywork or strenuous exercise.
In pregnancy and preferably even before pregnancy, I believe it is our duty as women to detoxify, clarify, heal to prepare our bodies to the best of our abilities and give our children the utmost chance of being healthy and experiencing a safe and an as easy as possible birth. I can truly recommend Anne’s therapeutic work if you share my belief and would allow her to guide your body to heal and open towards your natural mind/body awareness and increase the confidence in your body’s ability to experience a healthy pregnancy, conscious birth and as a result a more content and happy baby.”
