‘The first time I met Liz was at a workshop where she was offering demos of Shiatsu. I thought it was amazing.

'Since then I have taken any opportunity that has come up to have another session, and have recommended it to people because I know how good it makes me feel.

'In my role with Parents First! in Cambridge we organised a Pampering Evening for Mums. Liz kindly came along to offer Shiatsu and she was a huge hit – she didn’t stop all evening because so many people wanted to try it.

'The response afterwards was overwhelmingly positive. One of the women Liz treated told us that when she got home her husband said she looked so relaxed and happy: that her whole body and facial expression had changed.

'I think one of the best things about Shiatsu is that it’s not intimidating: you don’t have to take any clothes off which can seem a bit overwhelming to some people.’
