SHIATSUPRAXIS ISABELLE WIDMER (Herrliberg)

Shiatsu

Based on Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shiatsu is a Japanese form of body therapy. During treatment, the focus is on physical and mental imbalances, which are brought back into balance with acupressure, meridian treatment, stretching, various types of tapping and massage. This promotes the self-healing process, just as it can also support the maintenance of health.

Work is done in comfortable clothing either on the futon or on the couch.

All the advanced training I have attended and completed over the years is incorporated into the treatment.

Methods

Craniosacral Therapy

Treatment technique originating from osteopathy,

craniosacral therapy is a complementary therapeutic application that stimulates the self-healing powers. Gentle touches are used in an attempt to stimulate the rhythmic movements of the

spinal fluid and to influence them.

Yoga

Yoga is a health teaching from India that is over 3000 years old. It uses physical exercises, breathing techniques and meditation to increase physical and mental health. In a one-on-one session, we will work together to create a yoga routine that is tailored to personal challenges.

Moxa/ Moxibustion

The word moxibustion is composed of the Japanese word 'mogusa' (dried, finely grated leaves of mugwort) and the Latin 'combustico' (to burn). In TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), heated moxa is used to decongest scars, intensely affect acupuncture points, or stimulate chi (vital energy). It came to Europe as early as the 16th century and even today many therapists work with the various manifestations of moxa.

Scar Destruction

Internal and external scars and scar tissue can have a disturbing effect on our whole system. A disturbing scar can cause feelings of tension, muscle tightness, circulatory problems, nerve irritation, numbness and pain. With scar de-stressing, we work towards making the scars 'permeable' again, making them flexible and pliable so that the negative influences can be released.

Gua Sha

In the Far East, Gua Sha is mostly used as an initial treatment for flaring colds, but also for muscle tension and pain.

Intensive friction with a jade stone or a ceramic spoon on oiled skin stimulates increased blood circulation, which can support healing.
