Shiatsu for loss & grief

Allow yourself to feel grief

How you may feel when coping with major life changes, separation or loss. Including loss of pregnancy:

Feeling lonely and overwhelmed
Facing all kinds of emotions like anger, sadness or frustration
Finding it difficult to accept or express these emotions
Feeling that you can no longer trust your body
Experiencing heaviness or pain in your chest

What my clients observed after the treatment:

Appreciating a safe space where you can be completely yourself
Finding courage to look at the pain in your own pace
Feeling more centered and whole
Finding moments of peace and resilience within yourself
Honoring the old, while making space for the new

Aleksandra works with her heart. And with her, I was able to find space for my grief. Thanks to her empathic listening, I understood and accepted my sadness better. I am grateful for her generous and warm support on my grief journey and highly recommend her

Common questions about Shiatsu

1.) How is Shiatsu different from massage?

Massage therapy works primarily on the physical body, with the focus to release tension in the muscles. Shiatsu looks at a person more holistically. For me this always involves mental health too. The session is performed traditionally on the floor. You are fully clothed and no oils are used.

2.) Can I use Shiatsu for my specific condition?

Should you have any doubts if Shiatsu is good for you, feel free to get in touch with me. Please be aware that Shiatsu is not a replacement for medical treatment or psychotherapy. It is a wonderful addition to conventional medicine, that takes into consideration the overall wellbeing, including mental and emotional health.

3.) How many sessions are recommended?

This will depend on your individual needs. Based on the feedback from my clients and my own observation, I’m working in a series of 3 sessions, that take place every 2-4 weeks. There are great benefits in regular sessions, as your body will find it’s own balance and gradually relax deeper and deeper.

4.) What should I wear during a Shiatsu session?

It’s best to wear loose and comfortable clothes. Leggings or yoga pants are great, also a long sleeve-shirt and socks. You can bring your clothes with you and change when you arrive at the practice.

After having a miscarriage, I visited Aleksandra to let my tired and traumatized body regain trust, safety, and balance through touch. Shiatsu sessions with her supported me in processing grief and helped me to come back to my body one more time
