Can I explore herbal medicine on my own?
I strongly discourage exploring herbal medicine without professional input.
In order to determine which herbs are best for your needs, I will inquire about your ailment and your lifestyle to better understand your body as a whole.
The formulas and herbs discussed in our sessions are part of a much larger system. They may be appropriate for certain individuals who suffer from the conditions described, but are not necessarily the best choice for everyone in that situation.

Can herbal medicine help with my menstruation issues?
Yes! When working with women with menstrual concerns, fertility, and other gynaecological issues, it is not uncommon to prescribe three or four formulas to be taken at different stages of your cycle.

How many Zen Shiatsu sessions do I need?
It all depends on you. I often get good results after one session, however, it usually takes a series of three to see a strong shift in condition.
It is important to remember though that as some conditions take a long time to develop, equally so it can take a corresponding amount of time to undo.
I have some clients that have been seeing me for years to maintain their zone level and enjoy a full quality of life, no matter their age or ailments.
