About me
Hi, I'm Gaelle, I'm a mom and I'm a fully qualified and registered Shiatsu practitioner in Aberdeen, Scotland.
I came to Shiatsu as a guinea pig over 13 years ago and I knew I had to learn it.
In 2014, I lost my flat and my Dad and found myself in a homeless bed and breakfast while my kids were living with their father. Luckily, I still had my job and used running as a tool to preserve my sanity. During that same year, I started to feel energy around me and enrolled into a Reiki training where I completed level 1 & 2. it is only at the start of 2016 that I enrolled into the Shiatsu training with the Aberdeen School of Shiatsu. It has been 3 intensive years of training, full of sweat, tears and laughters but it has also been an incredible journey trusting my inner guidance, new made friendships, self discovery and alignment.
In 2019, I further develop my training and discovered working with the Extraordinary Vessels; I then, re-trained in Qi Gong with Des Lawton (San Boo Tai Chi and Qigong School) and became a Qi Gong instructor.
In 2023, I left full employment to dedicate myself to Shiatsu.
I work from the Rosemount centre in Aberdeen city and The Haven in Stonehaven.
In 2022, I re-joined Aberdeen School of Shiatsu as a graduate assistant; I started to teach in 2023 and I am now part of the Teachers as a Teacher trainee.
In 2024, I trained(twice) with Michael Mamychshvili and his NeuroPath Reset Method giving me the skills to help people with Trauma using shiatsu, facilitating the release of the protective patterns that the body creates when facing traumatic events. We also learned how to change the narrative of the pain story, allowing ancestral healing.
I also go the chance to meet and train with Chris McAlister, Shiatsu practitioner & Teacher, acupuncturist, Qi gong teacher and President of Shiatsu European Federation. We dove into the world of the 4 seas where all the meridians converge.
2024 also saw me diving into the World of Quantum Shiatsu (an extension of Zen shiatsu), guided by the brilliant Gabriella Poli, student and perpetuator of Pauline Sasaki's work.It enables me to work with more subtle energies, creating unification between the Body. Mind and Soul allowing the person to truly who they are.
All this learning has been a revelation and I am impatient to share it and see what unfold from here .
What to expect

It is done through comfortable clothing, on a futon ( "a mattress on the floor"), on a massage table or a chair, and last about an hour. Stretching, palming, rotations are used to release the flow of energy in the channels (meridians) that run through the body.
