Meridian Therapy Land

Meridian therapy is a holistic health approach embracing an individual's mind-heart-body connection and recognises self-healing potential improving energy levels, immunity and quality of sleep. On land, I offer Abdominal Chi therapy (Chi Nei Tsang) and Meridian acupressure.

Meridian therapy originates from Oriental medicine. Meridians are the pathways that carry vital energy and information throughout the body and communicate directly with our nervous and circulatory systems. Specific points and areas along these pathways are stimulated through various techniques. On land I use acupressure, stretching, needles, heat, cupping and gua sha.

An Abdominal Chi treatment (Chi Nei Tsang) involves gentle, soft and deep touch to the abdomen inviting the internal organs of digestion and respiration to work more efficiently through detoxification and muscular release. The physical manipulations help relieve the body of excess stagnation improving elimination and stimulation of the lymphatic and circulatory systems. Our mental state can also impact our digestion. Abdominal Chi therapy may assist in shifting mental tensions that impact your breathing, digestive integrity and how you cope with stress.

A Meridian acupressure treatment is inspired by the massage traditions of China and Thailand. Fully clothed and performed on the ground, the body's musculature and joints are invited into deep restoration. Ideal for tension-pain or for general selfcare maintenance, the mind-body benefits from this deeply relaxing treatment which improves circulation, releases muscles and joints, deepens sleep and quietens the mind.
