Welcome to Shiatsu Therapy

Shiatsu Therapy clinic is located in the heart of Galway, run by Julien Joly for the past ten years.

Many people choose Shiatsu for its relaxing and, ultimately, for its results in well-being which can help conditions from stress to arthritis and much more. In fact, for a full outline of exactly what Shiatsu can treat, please click here.

Attitudes towards health and healing have changed dramatically over the last 20 years with more and more people awakening to new approaches and understanding. Today people are more responsible for their health and wellness. As a result, Shiatsu has become a widely available, well respected and a preferred option for the prevention and rehabilitation of ill-health.

Shiatsu is a hands-on massage therapy, sometimes referred to as Japanese physiotherapy. Pressure is applied with palms and thumbs to certain areas of the body and specific acupuncture points to bring health and harmony. Other techniques used to release energy blockages include gentle manipulation and stretches to loosen up joints and muscles. For a more detailed description about Shiatsu click here.

As part of a comprehensive approach, Julien also offers sessions and courses in Pilates and Reiki which contribute to a healthy, energetic and balanced life. For more information on each of these approaches, please click on the appropriate links in the left-hand navigation menu.
