About Laura Barnes

I trained with the Ki Kai School in London in 2002. I have recently moved to Poole in Dorset where I am re-establishing a private practice.

Shiatsu works with energy, Qi or 'life force'; clearing blocks and strengthening weakness, which if left to continue can lead to injury and chronic ill health. It is a truly holistic treatment which works on many levels, physically, psychologically and spiritually.

Shiatsu is deeply relaxing, which, along with a gentle and supportive quality of touch, awakens and allows the body's self healing processes to work. The quality of touch has been described as completely satisfying and does not leave you wanting more as other types of massage can do.

I offer ongoing exercises and lifestyle suggestions in order that people can take responsibility for their own well-being. In Shiatsu underlying causes of ill health are addressed, which means that conditions should improve rather than continue to re-occur.

I have experience of working with conditions such as cerebral palsy and MS. I have found Shiatsu to be helpful for joint and muscle pain, injury rehabilitation, stress, substance abuse and addiction, anxiety and depression and fertility problems. Shiatsu may also be helpful for digestive disorders, sleep problems, hormonal problems, headaches, etc.

Within the space of Shiatsu healing and change can happen.

Testimonials

"I cannot believe how the therapy has affected my life. I now feel so much more relaxed and confident. Having suffered from depression and anxiety, for which I was self medicating on alchohol. I do not now feel the need to drink at all."
R. Fitch

"For 48 years I haven't been able to use it (arm). I wouldn't have dreamed of picking things up with this hand and now I can. I don't know how it works but its marvellous, like a tree growing back to life."
R. Crook
