An Amatsu therapy treatment, referred to as a ‘balance’, normally takes between 30 and 60 minutes. For the most part treatments are carried out fully clothed.
On your first visit a detailed personal history will be taken. Your practitioner will consider everything you say and will give you the time to talk fully about your problem. We think it is important to put the pieces together so you both have the fullest picture of how your body is coping. We believe that the people with the best knowledge about the problem are the clients themselves.
Your
practitioner will then assess your whole body. They will use a combination of
observation, testing and palpation (touch) to gather further information about
the current health status of your body.
After appraising your needs your practitioner will start the balance using a combination of soft tissue techniques including:

The
techniques utilised will range from the very gentle, to the more firm depending
on the age, health and needs of the client. Your practitioner will discuss with
you how the different techniques work and why they are doing what they are
doing. Our practitioners are trained specifically to tailor your balance each
and every time according to your needs on that day. They will regularly ask you
for feedback as to your health and well-being in between balances and they will
construct your balance around this, whilst always taking into account your
medical history. For further information on the techniques and principles of Amatsu
please see amatsu therapy - in depth.
The
number of treatments required will always depend on your individual
problems. We believe in educating
our clients to take control of their own health. Many clients, once they have
resolved their initial problem, return to maintain their health. Some come for a
balance on a regular basis eg: once a month, whilst others return as and when
they feel a need. We aim to teach you to listen to and read the signs your body
sends you. It is well known that ‘prevention is better than cure’.
A balance on regular basis may help you to prevent the everyday stresses of life from building up within your body.
All under 16s must be accompanied by an adult.
