Vanessa White
Shiatsu Massage Therapist, Doula, Perinatal Yoga
“Vanessa knows how to listen and touch deeply with her heart and her hands. Her Shiatsu is both gentle and powerful, sensitive and energetic, skilled and free-flowing – a dance, a dialogue, a meditation. Highly recommended!” – Marina
Vanessa began her journey as a Shiatsu practitioner in 2010, following a life-changing trip to Taiwan. She was inspired by the way her Taiwanese friends cared for their physical, emotional and mental wellbeing through bodywork and the Chinese energetic system.
She went on to study Shiatsu at the British School of Shiatsu-do, graduating in 2013, beginning a continuing exploration of the healing power of touch and its relationship with both body and mind. She continued to study with Suzanne Yates, Well Mother in Maternity Shiatsu, through conception, pregnancy and the postnatal period, as well as how Shiatsu can support the person through the different stages of life.

More Details
Shiatsu is a Japanese form of bodywork rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Using gentle pressure along the body’s meridians, together with stretches and joint mobilisation, Vanessa’s approach aims to release tension, create space and support the body’s natural tendency towards balance. She listens to your body through her hands, each touch is intentional, grounding and supportive of your whole being.
Shiatsu is useful in enhancing health and vitality, and helps release stress and tension, aches and pains and can improve digestion and circulation. It can support people suffering from depression and anxiety. During pregnancy, Shiatsu supports your changing body. It is a wonderful connection to your baby and prepares your body for labour helping to find comfort during childbirth. Shiatsu is a very nurturing support in the postnatal period.
Vanessa has supported people from birth through to the end of life.
Shiatsu is received fully-clothed on a futon, a light cotton mattress on the floor.
