Client Feedback

I took the problem of leg pains first to my GP, then to a hospital consultant, then to 3 different chiropractors. Nothing worked. Then I had a session with Jan who practices Shiatsu. Eureka! Following her treatment and advice and a follow up session my difficulties have diminished. I am walking so much better; also the exercises she recommended work for me. Thank you Jan. You are a star.

Meeting Jan is a healing experience that has an instant positive effect on the whole body and life. She uses a combination of ancient healing techniques like Shiatsu and Acupuncture together with a very intuitive form of energy healing and a profound knowledge of the spine.
I visited her for a chest problem that improved instantly after the first session. But more than that, it balanced and energized me so that my general health and well-being was restored in an amazing way.
She showed me a number of small posture exercises that had a great effect on my system and didn’t take much time to do. She is a great source of information about how body, mind and spirit are linked that can help to get you well in many ways.
For me as a notorious computer couch potato with no body training it was a fantastic balance that didn’t take much effort.
After only 5 sessions I feel great and energetic and my health problems are solved, my skeptical GP was almost jealous. To see the natural healing power at work, stimulated by Jan’s gentle but deep bodywork, was fascinating. She is a true healer and a competent source of knowledge that I can highly recommend to everyone who likes to take his health into his own hands.

I met this women when she was giving a demonstration in my local health food store. I had a migraine in the making, but in ten minutes flat she worked it away. A miracle! Anyway she’s based in Tring, Berkhamsted & Chelsea if you are near these clinics and are in need of some physical/emotional TLC. I’m going for a full session next week! – Lou Hamilton

I’ve been fortunate, for several years, to have received Shiatsu therapy from Jan. She has an uncommon intuitive ability to sense with her hands what your body may be asking for today as well as the ongoing issues for which you want help. Lucky clients who have her services now. – Sylvia Roberts (80’s)

Today I had another awesome Shiatsu from the wonderful Jan Murphy. Sometimes her treatments leave me elated, sometimes exhausted, blissed out, energized, or contemplative. Never unimproved!

Sometimes I descend into a trance state, sometimes I remain fully cognizant.

We start with a conversation as friends, then move on to my state of physical and mental health, which then leads us to decide where she will concentrate her treatments.

Today I felt happy, healthy and in good general spirits, so I asked her to concentrate on the knotted bungee net I have for an upper back!

The best bit was after a few minutes of intensive treatment on my neck muscles, Jan closed with a firm squeeze on my shoulders.

I immediately recognized the feeling of satisfaction as that of a jam roly-poly having hot custard poured over it, as it finally reached the state of deliciousness it always aspired to be.

Shiatsu is amazing. Jan is wonderful. I am a hot pudding.

I have been having shiatsu with Jan for about a year. I can honestly say it has changed my life.
It is both relaxing, yet energizing, It’s not massage, yet my body feels very different afterwards. Shiatsu has given me a sense of grounding  during a traumatic time of my life. It has been essential in the maintenance of my physical and mental well-being. I always leave with a sense of calm and a strong resolve. Jan is empathetic and she has amazing insight. Her positivity is contagious.

“I really loved Auricular Acupuncture, it has really helped me. Haven’t had any pain in my jaw since! Wish I knew about this years ago. You are superwoman Jan” – S. Harris

I was recommended to Jan when I was pregnant and was looking for a new technique to bring relief to my back and hip pain. Jan’s Shiatsu was truly the highlight of my week and was giving me a great re-balance of my whole body,  easing pain and made my pregnancy much easier. Also, she irradiates such an inner peace that it just brings you immediately to a feeling of well being.

Jan as well gave me stretches to do at home, which have been a great help. She also placed some acupoint seeds for muscle relief and had done a few sessions of auricular acupuncture, which I found worked really well and kept the effect stronger for many days. I truly recommend her.

Previously to meeting Jan, I had never experienced Shiatsu before. I would highly recommend it as it re-energizes, gets rid of any stagnation and maintains equilibrium within the body. I felt realigned and also deeply relaxed. Jan is a lovely lady, is very professional and knowledgeable in her field of treatment. I can highly recommend her.

I have to admit, I was so sceptical about Shiatsu but after Jan treated  my leg (broken last summer and not healed properly) I’ve had amazing results. For the first time in a year I’m able to fully bend the knee which will make a huge difference to my climbing.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I didn’t  know what to expect when I booked a Shiatsu session  with Jan. I’m glad, because to be honest I wasn’t expecting much more  than a pleasant, massage-like experience.
The experience was a total pleasure, I felt looked after, cared for and Jan’s energy is so bright and  delightful as to be contagious in an exceptionally lovely way.

The proof was in the pudding however, when I arose the next morning only a few  hours later. I was no less than astonished at the dramatic improvement  in my hip, which had caused me chronic pain for many years. If I lived  closer I’d be booking a monthly appointment on that basis alone. Many  thanks Jan, I certainly learned something with you.

Jan has treated me about 5 times now, I don’t know much about Shiatsu  but I know that it works for me. I have suffered from bad periods all my life. Last treatment I had she worked on this problem and ever  since I have had no pains, PMT or headaches.

Jan has also worked on other problem areas that I have, and I always  feel alive and able to tackle the world after my treatments, She has a very nice, calming energy, and is totally professional, yet  approachable.  I felt no embarrassment discussing my health issues with  her.

I cannot praise Jan highly enough.

I had a course of treatments from Jan after my GP referred me to a pain clinic. My scepticism was answered the day I realised I no longer needed my walking stick, soon afterwards I ceased needing painkillers and was also able to reduce my PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) medication. I now have treatments every month or two to maintain my more mobile and pain-free life.

“It’s odd I suffer from loads of headaches, but haven’t had a bad one since my treatment. I cannot wait til the next Shiatsu!”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Shiatsu treatment is very relaxing and seems to have a cleansing effect on the mind which lasts and lasts. My chiropractor has even commented on the beneficial treatment to my shoulder injury. Jan is very good at ensuring the environment is safe and continually checks during the session that I am comfortable both physically and with the treatment itself. I would definitely recommend both Shiatsu and Jan
