As yet there is no update from the Scottish government as to when Shiatsu practitioners can resume their work.
I emailed my MSP Fergus Ewing today asking for clarifcation for Shiatsu and other complementary therapies. There has been no guidance about when our profession can start again. Mr Ewing replied within half an hour to say he would look into my enquiry and seek clarifcation. Hair dresser are resuming work in Scotland on 15th July. I hope to have some answers soon.
As a precaution, I will only be doing treatments from my home and so there will be no home visits for the time being. I have been given strict advice by the Shiatsu Society about how to safely work at home and I will advise clients of the protocol when they book.
I hope to be working again safely soon. I am missing all of my clients!
In the mean time I am offering a weekly zoom class on Sundays at 12pm. We learn a pair of meridians a week, gentle Qi Gong exercises, Do-In (self Shiatsu) and use tennis balls to treat ourselves. It’s great fun! Email/phone me if you want to join in. It’s free or a suggested donation of £5 per class.
