Exeter Shiatsu

Councellor (35yrs)

I first met Nic several years ago. I had been having something of a physical and emotional crisis. I felt that I needed a therapy that could bypass words and address the distress that I was feeling spiritually , physically and emotionally. I was in great physical pain and suffering from long-held trauma. I was very fragile but wanted to change and to be active in my own healing. I was absolutely terrified.

One day a friend said, in passing I think, but with perception 'you should see Nic'. I did and I never looked back. I can't really express in words how healing shiatsu has been for me. It has been the combination of the art, method, skill, perception, knowledge, integrity and Nic's deep care, together with my active involvement in the process. I love being active, following through the suggestions and seeing the change. I love the feeling of safe touch, being held and supported, knowing that I am ok, and that I can fully trust both Nic and the process working a kind of energetic magic. I feel that I am settled in my own skin and able to live for the moment, care for myself and feel whole. On a more grounded level, the shiatsu I receive does so much to help my pain (though it can be uncomfortable at the time), my anxiety and my physical flexibility and energy. I can express my emotions more easily and name them, in their subtle shades, accept both them and myself. I am altogether more me than ever before, and that is why I continue to have shiatsu from Nic.

I was on lots of medication, heavy duty painkillers and anti-convulsants, no longer. I do believe that my cancer and it's symptoms have been stabilised in the main due to Shiatsu and to Nic's skill, care, knowledge, warmth and a good dose of reality and humour. He is one great guy who gives much of himself in his practice and he walks his talk .

Shiatsu for me takes me on a journey, a different journey each time but the same destination, closer to my heartland. It is sometimes challenging, sometimes it evokes deep emotion, but also gives me time to rest and reflect, to move and to grow And I keep on growing.

The session was so effective it completely 'blew me away'. Thanks for your help, my arm feels a lot better now.

I would certainly recommend Nic Florey as a Shiatsu Practitioner.

I started having shiatsu as I want to recover from M.E. Several people recommended Nic and I had met him at a Carers Day. The benefits have been long lasting.

Physically, I've now full feeling on my right side; no longer have headaches; sleep better; have more energy and feel balanced.Emotionally, I'm calmer and more confident.Spiritually, I'm stronger; better Chi flow; can 'ground myself'; tap into my 'inner core' and 'draw in energy'.

I've had Shiatsu for 10 months. I'll continue, as it works and I want to learn more.

Nic is a gifted practitioner; healer; teacher; guide; counsellor and person. He is adaptable and intuitive.
