What to Wear for Your Amatsu Session

Amatsu is a fully clothed therapy. You will simply be asked to remove your shoes, belt, and watch before the session begins.

To ensure your comfort and allow the treatment to flow seamlessly, please wear loose, comfortable clothing that does not restrict movement and allows gentle access to the body. I recommend avoiding jeans, hooded garments, or heavily embroidered tops. Soft, flexible clothing such as long-sleeved tops and tracksuit style bottoms are ideal.

*** Please bring along a bottle of water and a clean pair of socks with you, as Amatsu works with the whole body, including the feet.

Your First Appointment

Your first Amatsu session begins with a gentle and respectful conversation about your medical history. Understanding past and present injuries helps reveal how your body has adapted over time and ensures the session is tailored safely and thoughtfully to you.

This is followed by a calm, non-invasive assessment that allows me to understand your body as a whole. By observing movement, posture, and subtle patterns within the musculoskeletal system and acupuncture meridians, I can identify areas that may benefit from support.

This process allows your body to feel heard and guided, encouraging natural balance, ease, and your body’s own ability to heal itself.

After Your Amatsu Session

Each person’s response to Amatsu is unique. Some feel immediately energised, deeply relaxed, or gently tired as their body integrates the work. Others may not notice changes until a few days later, as subtle adjustments occur at a structural and neurological level.

Amatsu works with the body’s natural alignment, releasing restrictions in Amatsu works by encouraging the body’s natural alignment, releasing restrictions in muscles, fascia, and connective tissue. Even while you rest fully clothed on the treatment table, your body is recalibrating, improving movement patterns, easing tension, and supporting its own healing processes.

It’s normal for the effects to unfold gradually, and you may suddenly notice that discomfort has eased, posture feels lighter, or movement is easier. Sometimes without even realising the change was happening.

To support optimal results, I recommend drinking plenty of water and refraining from caffeine and alcohol. Please avoid heavy lifting and strenuous exercise for 24 hours, allowing your body the time it needs to gently settle into its newly realigned form and restore balance.
