How frequently do I take my prescribed herbs?
Your herbs are taken three times per day, every day, for the duration of your prescribed regimen.
-
What happens during my Zen Shiatsu session?
Every Zen Shiatsu session differs depending on the needs and issues of the client I am working with.
However, there are common phases that occur, which you can learn about by reading my article, “What to Expect During a Zen Shiatsu Treatment”.
-
Will I be prescribed more than one herbal remedy?
In general I prefer to only prescribe a single formula. In that way I can know exactly what has been taken into your body and can understand what to expect.
However, If your situation is complicated or you have numerous complaints, I may choose to prescribe more than one formula. For example, one formula for your basic underlying constitution and another formula to address your presenting symptoms.
-
Do you use oils or tools during Zen Shiatsu massage?
Generally, no. I will occasionally apply liniments to acute strains, sparing, and fractures. However my best work comes directly through my hands, elbows, knees, and feet.
-
Can herbal medicine be taken when following vegetarian, vegan, and other specialised diets?
Yes! All of your dietary needs will be discussed and considered during our assessment, however these herbs are safe for all dietary restrictions.
-
What is your cancellation policy?
Please provide at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.
If you do not provide at least 24 hours notice, or if you do not show up for your appointment, you will be charged the full amount of your scheduled treatment.
I value your business and appreciate your cooperation in adhering to this policy. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
