Shiatsu & relaxing massages · wellbeing in Brussels, Walloon Brabant and Flemish Brabant
Stéphanie Vuong, massage therapist and Shiatsu practitioner
Over the course of my practice, I discovered that my treatments could have a positive effect on everyday discomforts (insomnia, dizziness, musculoskeletal pain, and so on).
Curious to understand where these effects came from, I quickly turned to Shiatsu. This Japanese treatment, rooted in the principles of traditional Chinese medicine, allows me to work effectively during sessions and to offer deep relaxation.
What a Shiatsu or massage session brings you
A moment for you: whether it's a Shiatsu session or a relaxing massage, my sessions are first and foremost a moment of wellbeing. They help you feel a lighter mental load, greater availability for your activities or the people around you, a sense of ease, and calmer mental chatter. This state of deep relaxation supports the body's self-regulation, helping it better cope with physical discomfort.
My treatments and rates for a session in Schaerbeek (Brussels)
Shiatsu
Shiatsu is a Japanese treatment rooted in the principles of Chinese medicine, often described as acupuncture without needles. Rhythmic pressure at just the right depth, combined with stretching, brings about deep relaxation that supports the body's self-regulation. This treatment helps improve the flow of qi (energy). To shape the kata (sequence of movements), a short conversation takes place at the start of each session, and again at the end for longer sessions. You stay fully clothed, comfortably settled on a futon on the floor — please wear loose or sport-type clothing. For more information on the art of Shiatsu, visit the Shiatsu page.
Shiatsu - Short session
40 minShort on time, but you think these 40 minutes could help you catch your breath? It's a small act of kindness towards yourself! A shortened session is also available for people with a busy schedule.
5-10 min conversation + 30-35 min treatment
Shiatsu - Long session
75 minGive yourself credit for making time for your wellbeing. I'll invite you to notice bodily sensations throughout the session and afterwards. You'll feel more closely the subtle changes as your body self-regulates.
15 min conversation + 1h treatment
Relaxing massages
More than a treatment for the body, these massages are an invitation to unplug: slow down, set aside racing thoughts, and let the mind breathe. The touch — enveloping or firmer, depending on the massage — helps you step out of "doing" mode and reconnect with your senses, for a moment that's entirely your own.
