Kim Lovelace Shiatsu Practitioner and Qigong Guide
About
PLEASE NOTE: I now work only from my home treatment room in Chichester and no longer see clients at the Midhurst and Westbourne clinics. I don't have space to take on many, if any, new clients, but am happy to be contacted as a consultant with a view to discuss individual needs and suggest referral to other practitioners.
Please visit my webpages for a list of other Shiatsu practitioners in the West Sussex, East Hampshire & South Surrey areas.
Qualifying as a Shiatsu practitioner in 1992 Kim has been in full time practice ever since. His areas of skill are in enabling space for change, when conditions (both physical and non-physical) have become "stuck". In particular those affecting posture, musculoskeletal function and self image.
Kim's other great love is the practice and teaching of Qigong. A form of exercise that combines movement, breath and imagery. Modified forms of this are frequently offered to clients as "homework".
Every Shiatsu session begins with a guided tour around the body, using Shiatsu touch as a means of enhancing awareness to how specific areas feel, move and relate to the whole. Clients are encouraged to use the experience as a form of meditation on the body. Treatments combine the use of pressure points with muscle and joint stretches – the work is deep yet gentle, non-judgmental and respectful, focussed on each individual's need.
Outside the treatment room, Kim selfishly enjoys finding space for himself . . . within the body, outside the body, anywhere! This is especially precious when discovered in the least expected of places.
