Shiatsu and holistic bodywork

Working with your body to release tension, relieve pain and restore energetic balance

What is Shiatsu?

Shiatsu works gently with your body to release tension, helping you find balance and ease.

A Shiatsu treatment applies light pressure to acupressure points, along with a series of gentle stretches and joint rotations.

By focussing on meridians running along the body, Shiatsu aims to balance out areas of blocked or excess energy that can cause tension.

We begin by identifying areas of pain and tension in your body.  Your treatment is then tailored to those areas, and adapted to your feedback as we go along.

About Me

I’m Mark, the founder and practitioner at Ki Balance.

I was first introduced to Shiatsu through my practice of Japanese martial arts in the late 90’s and began my formal training with the Northern School of Shiatsu in Sheffield in early 2022.

I’m a father, carer and martial arts coach with over 25 years of experience of energy work, centre and body balance from my Aikido practice.

Through Shiatsu, I aim to help you find a state of calm, restful and restorative balance within yourself. 

I look forward to meeting you.
