Rich is passionate about the ideas of Traditional Chinese Medicine and the ancient wisdom of Taoism and Zen Buddhism. He offers bodywork as well as daily online classes and one-on-one practice sessions focused on helping people take charge of their health and wellbeing.

WHERE CAN I FIND RICH

Rich often hosts Shiatsu clients at his treatment space at the Paddock, an eco-village community space in Castlemaine (100km north of Melbourne). He also regularly visits clients in their own homes travelling to Melbourne for appointments several days a week.

RICH SAYS…
Our human body has 37 TRILLION cells (worth remembering there are “only” 8 billion people on our whole planet!). Our understanding of how and why the body works the way it does is still failing us – we spend so much of our lives in pain or discomfort or illness or suffering from trauma or injuries or side effects from chemical prescriptions.

There is simply no end to the joyous exploration of how the body works and functions. I love learning new things, so have travelled to Thailand and India and Indonesia to do teacher trainings across Yoga, Qigong, Tai Chi, Myofascial release and various bodywork forms.

Each one has unlocked a new level of curiosity in the ideas of Traditional Chinese Medicine and its amazing framework for understanding how to bring balance back to our lives, helping us live in harmony with others and our environment around us. I really love working closely with people to unlock the blocked energy that might help their body support them and allow them to achieve all they desire.

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

“Rich Moffat brings a very centred intuitive yet disciplined approach to his work. I feel relaxed and light after the treatments. He brings a holistic learning to the time. His massages and classes are times of great learning. His knowledge is extensive and he lives and practises the principles himself. I have sent several people to Rich.” Deborah Coulthard, Psychoanalytic Psychologist

“Rich is an amazing practitioner! His ability to tune in to my body enabled the areas with the most tension to completely release. Afterwards, my neck and lower back (sacroiliac area) felt remarkably free. Highly recommend!” Susie Hopkins,

Rosie has a deep reverence for nature, movement and touch. She believes in the wisdom of the body – it’s tendency to hold stories, and it’s ability to self heal. This is what she is of service to in her zenthai shiatsu treatments, supporting the person’s innate healing mechanisms, in a loving, relaxed, safe space.

Rosie’s Zenthai Shiatsu is built upon her background in Remedial Massage and Soft Tissue Therapy, so her sessions often include an insightful understanding of the body’s musculoskeletal anatomy, posture and compensation imbalances.

Although she loves her remedial lens Rosie doesn’t get fixated on the structural. From years of working with bodies her touch has been greatly attuned to also listen to the subtle conversations of the energetic body and nervous system. All her knowledge of the body merges together into a very wholesome offering. Her sessions are nurturing with her strong yet receptive hands, where you feel seen, heard and cared for.

WHERE CAN I FIND ROSIE?

Rosie is based on Bundjalung Country in the Northern Rivers of NSW. Along with Fellow Zenthai Shiatsu therapists Rosie created the Zenthai Shiatsu hub ‘Northern Rivers Community Clinic’ in Brunswick Heads NSW. Currently however she offers most sessions from her home, as well as mobile treatments in the Byron Bay and Tweed regions. Rosie is best contacted via text.

ROSIE SAYS…

“I feel soaked in gratitude that my path found it’s way to Zenthai Shiatsu. There is so much communicated when hands meet bodies through the ancient and powerful language of intentional touch. I see bodywork as a tool we can offer to people so we can support them to move, heal and thrive. So that people can walk through life with more alignment – structurally, energetically, and spiritually. From this place of alignment and wellness people can fully show up to life, for themselves, for others, for community, for nature and our collective mama Earth.”

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING:

“Rosie’s treatments are full of love and devotion. Her total presence is matched with her remedial knowledge of the body. I always feel completely refreshed and alive again after one of her treatments and know that I am going to be so well looked after. She has amazing touch and intuitive healing powers”.

“Rosie brings her relaxed confident presence to her Zenthai. She has attuned sense of touch, both explorative and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.”

SALLY SAYS…

“I’ve always has a passion for exploring our inner-space and really getting to know ourselves. Being a dancer and practicing yoga since I could walk, when I first came across Zenthai Shiatsu in 2009 I was immediately moved by the practice. Gwyn had come down to teach some workshops at a yoga studio I taught at in Melbourne. I was deeply touched by Gwyn’s teachings and the dance that Zenthai is. A dance that brings fluidity, aliveness and totality to the body, mind and spirit.. A dance that guides us back home to our true and natural state of being.

Since graduating as a Zenthai Therapist in 2015, I have been teaching with Gwyn on the Sunshine Coast and on Bali trainings, and have brought the practice to Victoria now leading the Zenthai Therapist Program in Melbourne. Zenthai Shiatsu and Zenthai Flow have become a big part of my life and offerings. I am forever grateful to be on this path and hold my many teachers dearly in my heart including my peers, students and clients.

Zenthai creates space and time to be with our self and start to listen. To listen to the tensions we’ve been carrying around, as they unravel like old stories from our joints, tissues, organs, nerves, mind, heart.

For me, Zenthai is a practice of letting go and getting out of the way so that my client, my students, myself may become hollow like bamboo, and a force greater than we can imagine can flow freely.

It is such an honour to guide my students and clients into that non-judging listening space where they can be with themselves, and where necessary bring light onto the causes of their symptoms and be on their path to healing and wholeness.”
