Melbourne Shiatsu

I've seen Dan for Oil Bodywork sessions for over 12 months and it's had a profound impact on my health. I've been able to find relief from painful period cramps, as well as support through big life changes. Dan is a gifted, compassionate and intuitive practitioner, I can't recommend him highly enough.

Dan is absolutely incredible. I have now had three massages, my most recent one a two-hour session, and all three have been fantastic. I initially went to see Dan for headaches and while I think it is a combination of a few things, I know Dan has certainly helped to calm these down. My favourite thing though is the way he makes you feel comfortable in his rooms, I always feel safe and can't wait to go on a journey with him via touch during the massage. I leave feeling a more centred and grounded, something I cherish as a person who has been through various traumas. Thank you so much Dan! See you soon!

Dan has a rare and exquisite combination of outstanding therapeutic touch skills, and highly sensitive, present and attuned energetic awareness. I’ve found his shiatsu sessions to be a magical breathwork meditation of connected and safe surrender and letting go of stuck stress and holding. From the very first massage, my nervous system felt safe and held with Dan, and I find shiatsu with him to be the most therapeutic in managing my health and stress. I highly recommend Dan’s shiatsu massage.

Dan is a fantastic massage therapist. I'd heard really good things about Melbourne Shiatsu, but the experience was even better than expected. It was clear that he's very experienced and gives 110% to his customers. Caring and professional, I highly recommend Dan and Melbourne Shiatsu.

I just had the most grounding, nurturing and meditative Lomi Lomi session with Alice today. I want to shout it out in the most peaceful way to tell the people what a wonderful place this is! I felt very safe and connected. Lots of compassion on Alice's side. I will definitely keep recommending and sharing the love.

While I originally came to see Dan at Melbourne Shiatsu as a result of an injury, I now come regularly as part of my wellness practice. I find him very helpful for getting my body back on track as well as knowledgeable of health as a holisitic approach. Absolutely recommend.

Dan's quality of care is unlike any other that I have had. I have been seeing him for body treatments for over 4 years. He makes every effort to ensure you feel comfortable in your sessions.

I have been seeing Dan now for about 4 - 5 years, initially only for occasional muscle pain remediation but more recently for regular body work. From the start Dan has been a wizard, able to problem solve my pain niggles and explain root cause, and most importantly treat the problems in a way where he understands what you’re experiencing.The regular visits are proving to be very very beneficial and I just really love knowing I have this time to look forward to when I feel my stress levels increasing and my body tightening up.It can be difficult to find a physician you fully connect with and feel completely safe with, but Dan has such a healing energy. I highly recommend seeing him no matter what your reason! You will receive quality treatment and a safe space, and you’ll feel amazing afterward!!

I've been to Dan twice now for body work and both times have been phenomenal. He is incredibly intuitive, sensitive and powerful and treats my body as a sacred space. I really enjoy chatting with him before and after the session about where I am at and what came to the surface during the session. I am learning a lot about myself and my body and I am excited that this is just the beginning. Thank you so much!

I have Shiatsu and Oil massages with Dan as a complementary part of my chronic pain and somatic trauma therapy journeys. Dan is, by far, the most caring and intuitive practitioner I have encountered. An an ND individual, Dans approach to check in with intention, and communicate transparently with me, is helping me to build my interoception and self-awareness in a gentle and supportive environment. He holds a safe space for my mind and emotions to connect to my body and I always feel more emotionally centred and physically integrated after our sessions.
