MELISSA SAYS…
I first met Gwynn and Zenthai Shiatsu at a workshop in Sydney, and immediately fell in love with this dance and connection. The practice of conscious present touch, finding the perfect fit, the strength in softness, Zenthai allows deep listening to the body’s innate healing abilities. It opens the space to be fully receptive, and I became awakened to the flow of giving and receiving, the joy of being that river of vitality. As a therapist it is an honor to share this experience.
I am in awe of the magnificence of the physical body and its ability to come back into balance and heal itself, when we allow it. The focused intention of Zenthai Shiatsu – the play, curiosity, the surrender to letting in the natural flow of wellbeing – opens the door to trusting the infinite intelligence.
WHAT OTHERS ARE SAYING …
“I have been seeing different massage practitioners for over 40 years, Melissa’s floor work is totally new to me, I was amazed at how much flexibility without pain she was able to get out of my rigid body. Melissa has great strength, but her best asset is her compassion and nurturing, something sadly lacking with a lot of human interactions.”
MATT CLEARY
“When I first met Melissa my intention was to try add some more movement in my hips and shoulders. When we started working she as talking about a dance. At first I thought it was the dance she was doing with my body because some of the movement that she put my legs and arms through felt like a dance. Until I understood that a space had been made for my body to remember its own dance. As a result not only do I have freer hips and shoulders I have more ease and grace in my whole body. Thankyou Melissa.”
GER MC CLUSKY
“I received several treatments from Melissa. The only way I can describe it is like counseling for the body! Melissa knows where the discomfort lies, listens to it with her body and intuition and works with her body to bring you into alignment and awareness. Every treatment is different and Melissa’s knowledge and technique is vast”
