Woman and health
In my practice I’ve experienced that a distorted energy balance in women is often related to hormonal fluctuations, mainly due to menstruation, pregnancy or the menopause. Generally speaking, you can rely on the self-healing capacity of your body. If the hormonal fluctuations or changes cause pain, shiatsu can help you recover your balance. The past few years I’ve specialised in the hormonal health of women. Based on my knowledge and experience I will give you a customised treatment, whatever issues you as a woman are experiencing.
Menstruation issues
Are you experiencing headaches or severe loss of blood during menstruation? Do you experience having a short temper every month? Are you feeling fatigued and sluggish after every menstruation? Shiatsu can help reduce, or even eliminate, menstruation issues.
Pregnancy
With shiatsu I can guide you to a beautiful and natural childbirth in a safe and relaxing manner. Shiatsu helps create physical and mental calmness. It strengthens the bond between you and your baby. It can also help prevent common issues such as pain, morning nausea, fatigue, pelvic instability, (lower) backpains and oedema. Besides, shiatsu enhances a good position of the baby.
During birth and post-natal
Would you like to be able to fall back on the relaxation and pain relief that shiatsu offers you during childbirth? We can have a few sessions with you and your partner during which you will learn practical shiatsu techniques and positions that you can apply during delivery.
Shiatsu can also be beneficial after childbirth. In the first few months after becoming a mum, you change significantly, both physically and mentally. Shiatsu expedites your recovery and helps you recover your energy.
Getting pregnant
Are you planning on getting pregnant? By enhancing a healthy hormone system, I can help you create a good basis for a (prosperous) pregnancy.
Menopause
Hot flushes, sleeplessness, painful joints, mood swings. Shiatsu helps you restore your hormone system and brings you in contact with your changing body. By supporting the changing processes in your body, you will have more energy when you go through the menopause.
