Shin Tai (from Liz Arundel) is a dynamic form of bodywork that fuses traditional Shiatsu treatment, using thumb and elbow pressure on meridians, with more subtle and gentle touch. Shin Tai restores the natural resonance of the body by recovering space in the body at a cellular, organ, joint and vibrational level. It aims to release long held patterns of stress and future anxieties or projections. Treatments and courses available.
