Shiatsu
Shiatsu can effectively treat a range of musculo-skeletal and stress-related issues. Gentle pressure, stretches and rotations help to stimulate the body’s own self-healing ability. A session can be in person or at a distance.
Reiki
Reiki is an energy healing system that can bring relief to physical, mental and emotional issues. Give yourself an energetic ‘spring clean’ to improve vision and clarity. A session can be in person or received at a distance.
Qi Gong
Qi Gong is a mind and movement practice that uses posture and intention to move and strengthen Ki (energy). The slow movements, stretches and deep breathing aim to promote relaxation so that Ki can flow in the body.
Distance Healing
Shiatsu and Reiki can both be received at a distance. The experience is very similar to an in-person session. Some people prefer to receive a session in the familiarity and comfort of their own space.
About Me
I founded SJA Holistics to help people get well, feel great, and stay well using the power of practices derived from Eastern Medicine including Shiatsu, Reiki, Acupressure and Qi Gong.
For over a decade I’ve worked with Ki and have first-hand experience of how energy- and body-work can lead to positive health. Working with the energy body as well as the physical can bring profound changes to mental, emotional and physical issues.
After completing three years of study for the Professional Shiatsu Diploma, I honed my experience working voluntarily for six months in a national UK charity giving Shiatsu to people recovering from substance misuse.
It is my mission to help you recognise your own self-healing ability and to empower you with the skills and knowledge you need to dramatically improve your self-care.
My Approach
We create your current health picture. Then we get clear on your goals so that we are aligned from the outset. This makes it easier to monitor progress.
Intelligent Energy
Every one of us has a universal energy, also known as lifeforce, chi, prana and Ki, that underpins our whole existence, and within that, our health. Stimulating the flow of Ki is how you can get well, feel great and stay well.
What people are saying
Thank you Sarah for the great Reiki and Shiatsu sessions this past week! I look look forward to more in the future and highly recommend these treatments to help find relaxing healing energy.
I’ve been having shiatsu treatments with Sarah for a while now and really recommend her! Sarah is warm and inviting and the treatments are super relaxing. Shiatsu has really helped my energy levels.
