Amandala SAYS…

“I fell in love with the amazing power of healing touch and breath work at a young age through my mother’s nurturing way and I gently wove this awareness into my life as a nurse and masseuse.

After venturing into the corporate healing paths of humanitarian aid and the medical device industry for a decade I found myself a mother, which swiftly returned me to seek and explore more deeply the benefits of touch and breath awareness again.

I am truly grateful this self inquiry led me to Zenthai Shiatsu, its loving founder and teacher Gwyn Williams and a vast community of soulful inspiration. The introduction and training revealed a beautiful healing dance, which frees and supports us on all levels, allowing energy to flow, balance in motion and space for self healing. I am humbled and blessed to be on this path and look forward to sharing with you.

Namaste”

Ananda believes his ability to stay focused and present during his heart-centred Zenthai treatments are directly linked to devoting over 15 years to practicing many forms of yoga, meditation and Seva. The sacred art of listening and holding a safe nurturing space is the foundation of his offerings. This allows a ‘deeper conversation’ to unfold and the opportunity for the client to connect to any old fixations, patterns or imbalances in their body – another powerful step in the healing journey.

WHERE CAN I FIND ANANDA?

Ananda has purpose-built a Zenthai Shiatsu clinic space on his organic property in Pohara, Golden Bay, NZ. Nestled in a quiet natural setting, here you can enjoy the peace and serenity of nature and feel at ease. During the summer months Ananda offers treatments at the local Takaka markets and many NZ festivals. Some Australian therapists also bring their love of this deep practise to share. Please email Ananda for more information on events and the mobile service on offer in his district.

ANANDA SAYS…

“I fell in love with this incredible modality a few years back after meeting Gwyn and Gaia whilst travelling in Australia. What Gwyn has developed, and his teaching style captured my heart and my time ever since, living and travelling with him and the community extensively to trainings and festivals in Australia and Bali. From movement-based therapy sessions to remedial techniques with postural corrections. From acupressure point work to flying therapeutics. From partner yoga to yoga asana advice, with lifestyle support and the list goes on – so much love! This has enabled me to establish a branch of Zenthai Shiatsu in New Zealand.

Learning, teaching and healing through Zenthai and its blend of Chinese Medicine’s Five Elements has been a revelation and a gift that I am passionate to share.

“If change and freedom are what you are searching for and you are ready to dive deep within, we are here for you”

Namaste”

WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING…

“Ananda creates a space of deep love and caring during his Zenthai treatments. I feel held and safe, able to let go, relax and heal. Ananda has a wonderful ability to connect and listen to my body. He finds the places of tension and overwork and opens them with perfect pressure and gentle but dynamic movements.

Ananda is bright, generous and loving in his approach to life and I can highly recommend his Zenthai treatments. From each treatment I come away grateful with a lasting sense of space and health in my body”
— Al Curran, builder

“I often give and receive all type of massages as I love it. However, I only just recently discovered Zenthai Shiatsu with Ananda and it was mind blowing. He is so good at what he does that I’ve experienced a whole new thing. He does not only listen to your body needs, balancing your energies and he also talks deeply to your soul, which is very special. Indeed he’s a really spiritual person and he’s passionate about what he does and that makes a huge difference. Highly recommended.”

Brian brings a palpable mindfulness to his treatments. Listening with his hands to how your body responds, he explores the range of movements of each of your joints to gently free them up from tension. By choosing pressure points and stretches to encourage energy and blood flow he will leave you with a body that feels light and energised.

WHERE CAN I FIND BRIAN?

Brian has a private healing space in the Perth suburb of South Lake (20 minutes from the city). He is also available for home treatments for an extra small fee depending on where you are located. You can contact him on his mobile or via facebook for booking enquiries. You can also get more info on his website www.beyondtouchbodywork.com

BRIAN SAYS…

“Zenthai goes beyond the massage techniques used, the secret lies in the listening of the hands and the ability to tune in to the receiver’s body in order to meet it in the right place. The state of mind of is what makes the difference between and average massage and an amazing session where magic can happen.”

“The best healer is the body itself so the role of bodywork is to encourage the body to reconnect with its innate healing power, it’s more about removing obstacles than anything else. Deep pressure and gentle stretches enhance the flow of blood and energy throughout the body, allowing the healing process to naturally take place. Deep relaxation is key since stress is a major factor in most imbalances so the intention of the Zenthai session is to encourage the body and mind let go of old fixated patterns and move towards greater freedom of movement.”

“Throughout my sessions I aim to build a trusting relationship with the receiver’s body through mindful healing touch. It’s a silent conversation which requires focus, patience and sensitivity but once the body trusts and allows itself to open up and let go, we see great results.“

What others are saying…

“I never knew how good Zenthai massages could be before I had my first session with Brian. I have been back to him many times since. I had been having an unknown constant pain on my lower hip for 8 years, but after my session, magically it disappeared and made my body amazingly light. Brian used different techniques to release my muscle tension and even releases muscles where I normally don’t notice tightness ! Brian creates a calm environment that allows me to feel very relaxed. I strongly recommend his sessions!! ”

Aiko, Kingsford NSW

“I’ve truly been impressed with the Zentai Shiatsu massages I’ve received from Brian. There is a noticeable improvement in my body condition after the treatment. It frees up the body joints and muscles so that I can actually move my body more easily. Brian listens to my requests and how my body is reacting. Its quite an interactive experience. An excellent massage.“

CLARA SAYS…

I know I’m on the right path when everything begins to fall effortlessly into place. Finding Zenthai has been this for me: the glowing in my chest, the tingles in my body, the absolute yes from every angle of my being. And looking deeper to see how perfectly it synthesizes each thing I value and love in life; touch, creative movement, community, connection to self, other, nature, and spirit. It’s a dream come true to have found one part of what I have to offer to the world, and to know that the journey itself is infinite. It has felt like freedom to study deeper into this modality. I love the work, and that joy is spoken through my hands. The learning has come naturally and easily through me and the humbling continues to deepen as I open my eyes to the whole world of knowledge, experience, and wisdom waiting at my fingertips. Forever, I am a student of life.

Deep gratitude goes out to Gwyn for catalysing such a journey of growth and transformation for me and so many others. What a wonderful platform for “coming home to what is real and meaningful”; for finding simplicity amongst the storm.

“Clara is an exceptional healer. Her presence is clear, strong and soft – the perfect balance. I am highly sensitive and quite particular with who I see. From the very beginning I felt safe with Clara as her touch is just divine. She is deeply intuitive and has an ability to communicate with the body at incredibly subtle levels. Her therapy is precise and effective. I have experienced profound healing with her support and highly recommend her as a therapist.”

– Matilda

“I have been amazed by Clara’s intuition, vibes, and skills. I had some really long standing aches and pains and, without any talk of it prior, Clara honed in and healed those physical areas in one session. I was used to living with the discomfort, but now am enjoying pain feedom and supple movement along the side of my body that was constricted before. I also felt comfortable telling Clara about the personal issues I was experiencing and wanting to focus on for healing. Without words, through the treatment, she shared with me a new positive energy vibe. I now return to often. It’s hard to explain, but its like a new sanctuary I can visit anytime to feel nurtured deeply. I’m grateful for the short time I was able to have treatments with Clara here on the Sunshine Coast.”

– Jayne

“Clara has spot on intuition and a very healing touch. She makes one feel at ease and works her magic in a patient and graceful manner. Her knowledge of the body through her yogic practices also adds definition to the experience. Truly enjoyed the healing session we shared and looking forward to having more! My body felt so relaxed and open afterwards. Definitely recommend booking a session.”

CRAIG SAYS…

“Persistent lower back pain was the catalyst for me to explore the expansive world of movement based therapy and alternative healing modalities. What started as a purely physical pursuit quickly evolving into deeper exploration of my inner world.

The freedom that I’ve experienced from gaining awareness and releasing chronic patterns of tension has given me direct experiential insight into the innate healing capacity of the human body. The best part is that our body is always available to us, wherever we are, making it the perfect vehicle for changing our physical, mental and emotional states.

Within Zenthai Shiatsu and Stretch Therapy I find two unique and complimentary modalities that at their core offer you an invitation to flow through life with grace and ease by cultivating a sense of serenity and calm alertness in body and mind.

I believe the integration of holistic bodywork with practical self-care methods offers the very best of both worlds, and I welcome you to step into your own healing journey.”

“I find touch one of the most profound human experiences. Oft our words are an inadequate conversation of connection, a hope for love and attention. With conscious touch does the veil of mind drop away with a sigh and the body relaxes. I am deeply grateful to have discovered such a beautiful dance that my body and soul responds to.

What others are saying…

“I first went to David with complaints of back pain, exhaustion and digestive difficulties. I found that within the first few minutes of the consultation he was able to accurately describe how my complaints were all related and by working on the root cause, which he was already identifying, we could heal the body of all the symptoms. After just a couple of sessions with Zenthai body work, cupping and meridian balancing I’ve seen a truly profound difference in my complexion, overall energy levels, outlook on life and best of all, no more pain in my back! All of this, paired with easy to understand dietary advice, I’ve been given a truly new lease on life. Thanks David!”

Ericka has been cultivating her listening hands and obsession over the body for a number of years, while working as a physiotherapist and as a dancer. She has an in depth understanding for the structural body and has a strong knowledge of pathophysiology and anatomy. Ericka also has a deep respect for the energetic body and the innate healer that exists within all of us. She holds space to allow you to awaken the inner healer within your self. Using her trusting hands, she is guided by the belief that there is endless potential within the human body.

WHERE CAN I FIND ERICKA?

You can find Ericka at her home physiotherapy clinic in Samford Valley. You can book a session on line through her website or by phone and email.

ERICKA SAYS…

“Coming from a structural and allopathic way of thinking about therapy, I was seeking a deeper form of healing for not only myself but to be able to share with my clients. After receiving my first Zenthai Shiatsu session my instant reaction was “wow this is combining my two passions… dance and therapy, I love it!”

After that first session I came away with a clear mind and a more decisive approach to life the following weeks after. So much so that I quit my job the following day, which I had been unsure about for months.

Zenthai gives me a feeling of being more grounded and it allows the natural order and a harmony to enter the inner realm of the body. In retrospect I realise my initial Zenthai experience allowed me to come back to my true essence, allowing me to make an important decision from my heart.

What inspires me to continue working with Zenthai Shiatsu is the fact that the therapy has no hierarchy where the therapist has all the answers… rather, there is a deeper connection and dance happening between two individuals and greater amount of listening happening which allows us to feel heard and be truly acknowledged. It helps us get out of our head and into our bodies, which then allows our bodies to do what it is they need to…”

What others are saying…

“Ericka is knowledgeable, personable and goes the extra mile to make sure her clients are given then best possible support and advice to help them on their healing journey. It is obvious that Erika truly cares about the long term health of her patients, which makes working with her feel worthwhile and valuable.”
Rebecca – Office worker

“My Zenthai treatment with Ericka was excellent. She helped to relieve a lot of the strain I feel down the right side of my body from a shoulder injury I received some years ago. I will definitely be seeing Ericka for more sessions!”

“Working as a massage and body therapist for 28 years I’ve always struggled to find someone who understands the body to deliver an effective treatment that helps release the hips, mid thoracic and neck. Finding Free at the markets when my body was screaming to be Free’d up was a true blessing. His calm centred presence and his ability to give space and silence during the session was amazing! To be stretched and nurtured by Free is a wonderful experience. I was a tad stuck .. literally and physically and 2 sessions later, I feel more free than I have felt in a long time. A genuine caring human. I highly recommend his brilliant Zen Shiatsu massage.”
