Drug free, hands on healing, to reach into the depth of human connection. No machines, no chemicals, no filters between self and other. Oneness with all that is to promote a depth of awareness around the interrelationship of all things. As my teacher once was quoted, "Touch is an excuse. An excuse to touch what we cannot touch. We touch life itself." This promotes harmony and balance, nervous sustem regulation and true energetic connection for… deep healing.

Zen Shiatsu found me in an East West Center in San Diego in 1985. My next job took me to NYC, where I found my way to the Shiatsu Education Center of America. I became affiliated with that institution, the Ohashi Institute, and started a branch school in Chicago. I became a senior instructor in the Ohashiatsu system, and at the same time, heard a voice in a SweatLodge. It simply told me that I was born to practice Shiatsu. It's been a long four… decades in the clinic and classroom sharing the beauty and power of healing touch following the Meridian Channel system. I could tell a thousand stories. I hold them all in my heart.
