Elemental Balance Shiatsu Therapy and Training Claimed

Ignite your Inner Harmony with Shiatsu

With over two decades of experience in the field, Anne Saunders of Elemental Balance,  has dedicated herself to the art of Shiatsu,  a Japanese bodywork therapy which draws inspiration from traditional Chinese medicine by incorporating fundamental principles like Qi and meridians. She has studied under the mentorship of Cliff Andrews and practised her passion in the UK, Australia and South Africa.

Embrace the Healing Power of Touch

Through pressure, stretching, rotation and holding, the Qi is moved to restore balance and promote the free flow of energy which facilitates the innate self healing qualities which can help you with stress relief, pain management, enhanced energy flow, improved relaxation and sleep, emotional well-being, and increased flexibility and range of motion.

Anne utilizes her wealth of expertise, knowledge, and passion to carefully curate a course that caters to both beginners and therapists seeking to expand their understanding.

The Elemental Balance Shiatsu Course will help you to:-

• Gain a valuable skill set to provide treatments for family, friends, and potential clients, whether on a personal or professional level.
