Ali Joy is a certified Clinical Hypnotherapist as well as a Zen Shiatsu Massage Practitioner from the Vancouver School of BodyWork and Massage. She has studied ancient massage and healing internationally over the past 10 years. From Ayurvedic massage and Kerlite foot massage ( 2 feet one rope ) in India, Thai yoga massage in Thailand , Shamanic Soul Retrieval with Sandra Ingerman to Craniosacral therapy in New Mexico. Also in her tool box is reiki, hot stone and relaxation massage around Canada.  

The practice of Zen Shiatsu demands that the practitioner have a quietness in their being so they can listen to the energetic movement through their hands along the 12 meridians. The balancing of this energy brings balance to life. Sometimes meridians can get deeply blocked by physical or emotional traumas. Calling in ancient shamanic energetic clearings or plant spirit medicines really help to dislodge old pains, patterns and holdings to help us become unstuck. In these cases I call in a plant or animal spirit to share it's medicine to teach us how to heal. Plant and animal spirit medicine works on a subtle, more dream-like level to help show the body how to heal.

A session usually lasts between 1-2 hours. People often feel 'freed' after 1 session from pains, anxieties, stiffness. People report being clearer or lighter. or heavy and tired. I believe you get exactly what you needed from each session.

On a metaphysical/physical level, Shiatsu facilitates a strong energetic circuit between a person’s auric field and the Earth’s energetic field. This property of Shiatsu means that it is a wonderful ally to shift the energetic impact of traumatic experiences and stagnation, assisting with easing the symptoms of blockages, dis-ease and assention.

Illness is often the result of one or more blockages in a person’s energy and auric field, blockages of energy that are trapped hence no longer in motion. The word emotion literally means ‘energy in motion’, thus when we hold onto the emotional pain of an experience (either from this lifetime or a previous lifetime) the stagnant energy alters the expression of our DNA. It is this DNA expression which in turn creates a particular cellular function, a discordant function we refer to as dis-ease.

, like acupuncture, moves energy along our meridians releasing the symptoms of pain, 'holding-on', stagnation, and being blocked. The symptoms we may experience as a result of our personal, spiritual, mental & emotional development.

Shiatsu aims to regulate the energy known as "ki" or "chi", which flows through these meridians, nourishing the organs, muscles, glands, nerves and blood. An imbalance in this energy network can lead to fatigue, pain and illness. Shiatsu treatments help to relieve stress and pain, improve muscle and joint function, strengthen the body, and improve health and well being.
