"My teenage daughter and I have been happy clients of Sanna's for some time. My daughter has Autism and is very sensitive to touch and energy but she finds Sanna is very intuitive and respectful and helps support her whole body and mind systems.

Sanna is a very experienced healer. The way she moves and flows with the body during a Zenthai treatment is deeply transformative and supportive. Sanna is a wonderful practitioner with a capacity to work with the complex relationships between body, mind and soul. There is often healing on many levels. Zenthai is a practice that beautifully connects everything together and Sanna is the conduit for this to happen." - Amida

Blending Thai Yoga Massage, Remedial and Osteopathic Techniques to the Individual

In recognising that no two bodies are the same, each session is aligned with focused intention at the core. A series of gestures are curated intuitively working with the natural rhythm of the body to release blockages, tension and gently guide you back to an innate state of balance. With intentional touch and awareness, symptoms of the musculosketal, digestive and nervous systems are considered holistically and treated accordingly, inviting a smooth flow of chi (vital life force) to return.

Zenthai Shiatsu sessions are offered fully clothed on a specially designed floor mat, and are followed up with lifestyle guidance to empower you with the tools for self-regulation. 

"It's seldom that I get to have an experience of utter release. As someone who works as a healing practitioner and teacher - being supported and held to experience the spaciousness necessary for healing is very rare.

I was so incredibly lucky to have a Zenthai experience with Sanna this week. Her presence in her practice is paramount. I felt truly held, safe and that she really listened to my body. It was an experience I hadn't had in a very long time; both transcendental and grounded. A treatment with Sanna is a journey to say the least. It was a returning home and a letting go. I couldn't recommend her more to anyone (especially those in a similar field to me) feeling like they need to unwind, relax and restore all their senses." - Rosie
