About Shiatsu & Self Development sessions with Naia Granero
I provide physical treatment and a safe space for you to explore emotional issues at your own pace. I also offer sensitive, professional support, helping people to manage and heal the effects of past trauma, abuse and addiction.
Every session is tailored around what you want, it is up to you whether to focus on physical treatment, self development counselling or a bit of both.
I have specialist experience working with people living with, and survivors of:
Chronic illness
Depression
Anxiety
Grief and loss
Challenging life transitions
Drug and alcohol misuse
Addictions
Sexual abuse
Childhood abuse and trauma
Keeping pain and trauma suppressed often causes the body to become tense and defensive, which can lead to chronic physical and emotional health conditions. Receiving body work and self development support encourages your body to relax, physical symptoms to ease and helps you make positive choices to enrich and transform your life.
Shiatsu
Shiatsu helps to relieve physical illness, release emotions held in the body and calm the mind. It is a traditional Japanese form of body work, influenced by Traditional Chinese Medicine and integrating knowledge of anatomy, physiology and pathology.
Shiatsu uses physical touch to deeply listen and respond to the body. It works by stimulating pressure points and meridians - these are areas in the body that connect with specific organs, physiological systems and emotions - to speed up the body's innate healing response.
Treatments include massage style techniques, focus on the breath and gentle stretches. Each treatment varies to suit the individual, and can range from a light touch to deep work into the muscles and tissues. During treatments you always remain fully clothed. Sessions also offer advice on diet, posture, exercise and lifestyle.
Shiatsu is far more than wisdom and technique embedded in an ancient form of body work, Shiatsu connects to your innermost truth with presence and unconditional acceptance.
Self Development Counselling
Self development counselling supports you through your process of increasing awareness, and consciously moving beyond patterns in your life which you no longer want or need.
Past experiences can keep us stuck, unconsciously repeating unwanted scenarios and sometimes feeling as though we have little control over what is happening. Developing awareness encourages us to focus on our experience in the present moment, and can help us to notice the roots of our judgements and expectations. Often the roots lay in events or hidden parts of our personality which can be challenging to look at, and may bring to the surface strong emotions such as fear, anger, grief and even joy. Acknowledging these aspects of ourselves helps us to respond to our needs with compassion and integrity, and can support us to change the patterns in our lives.
I offer sensitive, professional support and a safe space, for you to move through your process, at your own pace.
