O QUE É SHIATSU?
Shiatsu awakens the energy within
Shiatsu é um termo japonês que significa:
SHI: dedos
ATSU: pressões
Pressão dos dedos em pontos específicos, também utilizada na acupuntura.
Esses pontos permitem a comunicação com nossos tecidos e órgãos profundos.
O Shiatsu tem um papel curativo e preventivo
Curativo: trata todas as dores e transtornos que nem sempre podemos explicar porque não se detecta nenhuma anormalidade física visível e ainda assim existem muitas dores.
São dores no pescoço, dores nos ombros, dores nas costas, dores nos joelhos, tendinites, dores de estômago, distúrbios digestivos, distúrbios do sono, distúrbios menstruais, estresse e ansiedade, problemas que frequentemente encontro em meus pacientes. O Shiatsu também é muito eficaz no apoio e acompanhamento da gravidez e na preparação para o parto.
O Shiatsu abre as passagens de energia no nosso corpo, permite a respiração que vai evitar que a energia e as tensões se cristalizem e é aqui que entra o papel preventivo do shiatsu._cc781905-5cde-3194-bb3b- 136bad5cf58d_
Como as doenças não aparecem da noite para o dia, elas se acumulam por anos no corpo e aparecem um dia, quando às vezes é tarde demais.
Ao trabalhar em nossas tensões ascendentes, podemos evitar que doenças se instalem em nosso corpo.
O Shiatsu permite um relaxamento muito profundo que afeta também o nosso aspeto emocional e mental, o stress e a ansiedade podem diminuir e assim abordamos a vida com mais motivação e mola, mais vitalidade para resolver as nossas dificuldades que muitas vezes parecem bem menos complicadas.

Seiki
A Seiki treatment is:
making space for energy,
opening and allowing,
fully inhabiting our entire body.
Why aren't we always completely at ease in our bodies?
Why do we sometimes experience emotions that block us, preventing us from enjoying life, even when we "should" be happy?
Because emotions are energy. To feel alive, our energy must flow freely. The nature of energy is movement.
For various reasons—difficult emotional experiences, falls, accidents, illnesses—certain areas of our body can become rigid. These blockages create knots and tensions that hinder us physically, emotionally, and mentally. These areas become "uninhabited" parts of us, where life is frozen, because we no longer know how to access them or because it frightens us.
Seiki energy is the original energy of life. It flows naturally through our bodies. During a Seiki session, the practitioner uses their own energy to create resonance and provide the necessary space for the release of blockages.
The goal: to reconnect with our body as a whole, restore unity, and rediscover our vital energy. This rekindles the desire to live and allows us to fully realize our potential.
Life would be meaningless if it were created to be a burden.
Healing Process
If a child falls and hurts himself, he will take comfort in the arms of his parents or his carer, perhaps cry loudly then return to play as if nothing had happened.
At this age, a child is still in touch with his ki energy. No deep tension blocks the flow and through the act of receiving comfort and reassurance, his ki energy resumes and self-healing occurs.
Traumas arise when physical and emotional shocks have not been acknowledged and the body has not been able to self-heal, building up tension. Over time, additional shocks and tensions accumulate and the body is increasingly less able to self-heal. It becomes more and more difficult for this life force to circulate within the body. These deep tensions can create chronic pain and lead to illness. Shiatsu pressure allows us to awaken this dormant life energy within.
Over a series of sessions, tensions are released and traumas alleviated. The number of sessions required varies as we are all unique, each with own rhythm and personality but the sense of self-healing begins immediately.
Do-In
You can join my YouTube channel here and benefit from a free course
I started to practice do-in during my shiatsu training, before starting to learn, we worked on circulating our own energy through stretching, breathing and self-shiatsu. This practice allows me to stay in shape and to be able to communicate healthy energy to my patients. And why not share this knowledge with them? So that they can acquire a certain autonomy and learn the secrets of energy circulation on themselves. This is why I began to transmit these exercises developed by Shizuto Matsunaga Sensei, founder of iokai shiatsu. Matsunaga Sensei, after spending years treating people with his Shiatsu realized that although Shiatsu was a very effective healing method, it required another step of personal participation to achieve perfect health.
🌸 SHIATSU/SEIKI for children
Supporting the child through touch, with gentleness and presence.
A child’s body is in constant movement — growing, adapting, exploring.
Shiatsu and Seiki offer a space where the child can recentre, relax, and return to their natural balance.
Through a light, attentive, and respectful touch, the child learns to feel, and to release what was being held.
Each session invites the energy to flow freely again — allowing tensions, emotions, or fatigue to gently transform.
Shiatsu helps regulate the nervous system, support immunity, and ease common imbalances such as sleep issues, restlessness, anxiety, or difficulties with focus.
Seiki, on the other hand, creates space for the body’s spontaneous movements and the natural intelligence of life to unfold.
Every session is a moment of caring presence, without expectation or judgment.
The child feels safe, seen, and soothed — free simply to be themselves. 🌿
Your Therapist, Alice Rigot
Born and raised in France, Alice began practising Zen meditation in 1996, and it was at a Zen dojo in Paris that she met a great Japanese shiatsu master, Sasaki Sensei, who came to teach shiatsu.
She was moved by this healing practice, and for the next 5 years, she trained herself in the art of shiatsu.
And because she loves learning and is keen to deepen her knowledge, she is now studying seiki. Seiki is the continuation of shiatsu founded by a disciple of Matsunaga, Kishi.
