NELLY SAYS…
“My approach to Zenthai Shiatsu has evolved through a fascinating intersection of experiences – seven years of teaching yoga, my own healing journey, and over 15 years in marketing and business. This diverse background has given me a unique perspective on how modern life affects both our physical and emotional well-being.
Many clients tell me their sessions feel like a blend of movement therapy and psychotherapy, where physical release opens doorways to emotional healing. This beautiful feedback reflects the essence of my practice – creating a safe space where both body and mind can unwind and transform. Through my understanding of Traditional Chinese Medicine principles and somatic awareness, I help guide this process of release and renewal.
My close collaboration with Chinese Medicine practitioners has deepened my appreciation for the meridian system and its role in healing. They often note how Zenthai Shiatsu work complements acupuncture treatments, as both modalities work along these vital energy pathways. This synergy between traditional needlework and pressure-point therapy through movement creates powerful opportunities for healing.
Having experienced my own journey of disconnection and reconnection with my body, I appreciate how challenging this path can be. This personal understanding, combined with my professional experience, allows me to hold space intuitively and compassionately.
What draws me to this work is witnessing the profound moments when clients experience release – whether it’s a physical tension they’ve held for years or an emotional weight they’ve been carrying. Through the integrated approach of Zenthai Shiatsu, combining elements of Thai massage, Shiatsu, and Osteopathy, I can address both physical and emotional aspects of healing.
Every session becomes a unique journey of discovery, where my role is to listen deeply – both to what is said and unsaid – and respond with intuitive, nurturing touch and movement guidance. This work continues to humble and inspire me, as I witness the body’s incredible capacity for healing when given the right support and space to flourish.”
What Others say…
Nelly is an incredible Zen Thai Shiatsu massage therapist! She intuitively focused on the areas in my body that were holding deep physical and emotional tension, gently releasing these spaces and creating a profound sense of freedom and lightness. Her energy is so beautiful and calm, making it easy to fully relax and feel supported throughout the session. I left feeling deeply nurtured and renewed—highly recommend booking in a session with her. -Georgie – Chinese Medicine Practitioner
