Jonathan says...
“My sessions address structural, emotional, and psychological blockages in the body, through the Meridian channels. The desired result is greater freedom of movement in the body and mind. Clients’ reasons for a session include, but are not limited to, lower back pain, anxiety, insomnia, digestive issues, neck pain and grief processes. People come away with diet & lifestyle suggestions to implement in their daily life. The session ultimately aims to harmonise your body’s systems, and leave clients feeling more relaxed & peaceful."
Reflections from clients..
"Trusting his intuition, Jonathan effortlessly takes me on a deeply restorative journey for both body and soul. From our first interaction, his genuine curiosity and care create a space where I feel truly seen. With each movement, accompanied by thoughtfully curated sounds, I find it easy to relax and surrender — embraced by a warmth and brotherly love I never knew I needed. Thank you for looking after me, mate."

"Jonathan's Zen Thai Shiatsu therapy has been a transformative blessing for me. I came to him weighed down by stress and pain, struggling to get through each day. After my first session, I felt lighter and could walk all day with ease. By the second treatment, my posture improved noticeably, and a burst of energy inspired me to exercise for the first time in months-no pain relievers needed since.
Jonathan’s gentle intuition and exceptional skill go beyond aligning bones and muscles. After my third session, I feel the emotional blocks holding me back dissolving, realigning my spirit and igniting confidence that I can grow stronger and happier again. Jonathan is my trusted go to for therapeutic care. So grateful for his incredible work."
