About us

 Your teacher, Alex West TZS MRSS(T) is a registered teacher with the Society of Great Britain. He also has City and Guilds Teacher Training Certificate from the City and Islington College.

The Certificate in Practicle Shiatsu awarded on successful completion of this course is recognised by the Zen Shiatsu Society and students are able to apply for membership of the Zen Shiatsu Society and can get insurance in order to practice, with guidance from the teacher, simple stress relieving shiatsu on non-medical conditions, for money.

You do not learn routines- you learn how to apply the principles of Zen Shiatsu, finding the energetic imbalances in the energy body using your powers of observation, sensitivity and other undefined abilities in perception. Each treatment you give will be different according to the needs and responses of the receiver. This method of learning requires a greater emphasis on awareness and perception, also developing your intuition to a point where it is a necessary and indispensable part of your work. The result will be a natural unfolding of your innate ability to help and heal others, in a way that is safe and enjoyable, creating a wonderful sense of well being not only in the person receiving the treatment, but also in yourself as the one giving it.
