Zenthai Shiatsu
whY zenthai shiatsu
A dynamic form of bodywork that addresses the whole body, and offers an invitation back to the natural rhythm of life.
01
Zen Shiatsu
Sustained pressure along the body's meridian lines. Supports nervous system regulation, energetic balance, and the release of deeply held tension patterns. Slow, intentional, deeply attentive.
02
Thai Massage
Assisted stretching, passive joint mobilisation, and rhythmic movement that frees muscular tension and energetic blockages across the entire body.
03
Osteopathic Principles
Joint mobilisation, connective tissue work, and fascial unwinding addressing physical patterns of holding. Particularly effective for structural and musculoskeletal concerns.

Session 01
The RESET
Think of this as your maintenance session. Nervous system downshift using slow, firm pressure, joint release, and whole body mobilisation. A reboot for the overstimulated mind and overworked body.
$150
60 minutes
Session 02
The Alignment
A deeper and longer session. Ideal for those who live at high output — professionally, physically, or both. It gives your mind and body the space to address the deeper patterns and the stress that accumulate over time.
$200
90 minutes
Session 03
The Return
A mini-retreat, a two hours journey into your body — whole body unwinding followed by grounding integration. For those who feel very depleted and are in need of something longer than a standard session.
$250
120 minutes
Available in 90 & 120 min · No extra cost
Flying Therapeutics
You can request this practice at any 90 or 120 minutes session.
Gravity, body weight, and harmonic pulsing allow the body to realign and release in ways floor-based work cannot reach — a suspended, decompressing dimension to the session.
what to expect
The session unfolds
Every session is an opportunity for deepening your connection with your body. There is nothing you need to do, giving your nervous system the space to catch up to the high pace of current life.
01
Arrive and check in
Each session begins with a brief conversation — how you're feeling, what your body needs that day.
02
The session unfolds
Sustained pressure, assisted movement, stretching, and moments of stillness — guided by your body's capacity and pace. The work adapts to your needs and the session evolves from there.
03
Integration
Most people leave feeling more grounded, clear, and physically at ease. Effects continue to unfold over the 24–48 hours that follow. The body takes time to integrate what it receives.
04
Building a practice
My recomendation is one session monthly, the body learns to trust and let go of deeper stress. To live your life with vitality, consistency is everything.
what clients say
The shift people feel
★★★★★
"I’ve been seeing Pablo for Zenthai Shiatsu sessions for a few months now and I can’t recommend him highly enough. He is an incredibly talented practitioner and along with my body feeling so much better after sessions, the biggest change for me has been in the calm it brings to my nervous system during periods of high stress.
Pablo is such a warm person with a calming energy, he creates a space that feels safe and trauma informed, allowing you to relax."

★★★★★
"This isn't a massage. It's something different - slower, more intentional, and oddly more effective. I run my own business and carry a lot in my body without realising it. After each session, my head is clearer, my body feels like it belongs to me again, and I sleep like I haven't in years.
Pablo knows what he's doing. He reads the body well and works with real precision. There's no fluff - just a genuinely skilled practitioner who takes it seriously.If you're high-output and running on empty, this is probably exactly what you need."
★★★★★
"I’ve been receiving Zenthai Shiatsu sessions from Pablo for many years now and his sessions have been deeply supportive and healing. Working with Pablo has helped me time and time again to come back to centre and manage the stress and workload that comes with running a business.
Each session helps me feel more grounded and clear.Pablo is incredibly talented, intuitive and deeply passionate about what he does. I strongly recommend working with him."

Common questions
Everything you need to know before booking.
Loose, comfortable clothing that allows full movement — think training gear or relaxed pants and a t-shirt. Sessions are fully clothed on a mat, so you'll be stretched, moved, and worked through fabric. Restrictive or structured clothing will limit the work. Arrive as if you're about to move.
A regular massage works on the surface — muscle relaxation, temporary relief. Zenthai works on the pattern beneath it. Sustained pressure along the body's meridian lines, assisted stretching, joint mobilisation, and fascial release all happen within a single session. It addresses why the tension keeps coming back, not just the tension itself. The result is more lasting, more grounded, and significantly more complete than a table massage.
Yes — and often it's where Zenthai is most effective. Chronic pain, restricted movement, and post-injury holding patterns are exactly what this work is designed to reach. The approach is adaptive, not prescriptive. Every session responds to what your body is presenting that day. If you have specific concerns, share them before we start — the work adjusts accordingly.
