SHIATSU + QUANTUM BODY WORK WITH HELGA FUXA

Shiatsu is a form of bodywork that has its origins in traditional Chinese medicine and the historical massage techniques of ancient Japan .

Modern shiatsu is based on these oriental traditions drawn together with ideas and knowledge from modern disciplines.

The term shiatsu literally means “finger pressure”. In fact, fingers, thumbs, palms, elbows and knees are used to apply pressure to the receivers’ body.

These techniques are used in conjunction with stretches and joint rotations to give an ‘all-over’ treatment which aims to treat the receiver on a holistic level – working with the mind body and spirit together.

Quantum body work is an evolutionary body therapy developed from shiatsu and shintai.

QBW combines different forms of bodywork such as Osteopathic, Cranio-Sacral Therapy, and Rolfing,

The different techniques allow the practitioner to identify and prioritise for each individual, the treatment suited uniquely for their deepest need.

In 1996, after 6 years of training (ESI – Austria , Switzerland and Germany ), she began her practice in Eresos offering classical Shiatsu and Quantum Body Work treatments.

She also offers Shiatsu seminars, (3 days), workshops, (1 or 2 days on special themes such as back problems or menstrual cycle), and an exercise group – Makko Ho meridian stretching, three times weekly.
