The Healthy Life Centre
Some of our lovely staff, therapists and teachers!
Please see below for Centre Facilities
In 2009 Tamsin Grainger set up The Shiatsu Centre as a home for The Shiatsu School Edinburgh. The aim was to provide a place for Shiatsu practitioners to come and practice, and to share ideas. There was a large upstairs training room for courses, a treatment room for one-to-one sessions and small groups, and of course space to sit, chat and drink tea!
Very soon the basement was developed providing a second treatment room and a meditation room. When Kirsty Mooney joined the team in 2010, the programme was expanded and we renamed ourselves The Healthy Life Centre reflecting the transformation into the vibrant place it is today. Over 20 therapies and 25 regular classes are being taught by a plethora of professional therapists and teachers every week.
The Healthy Life Centre houses a comprehensive range of therapies such as Acupuncture and Oriental herbs, ayurvedic medicine, counselling, craniosacral therapy, Feldenkrais, homoeopathy, integrative medicine, nutritional medicine, reflexology, Shiatsu, supervision, and Thai massage.
There is a full timetable of classes including Alexander technique, chi gung, HypnoBirthing, laughter club and workshops, meditation, Pilates, psychodrama, Shiatsu for adults, babies and pre-school children, and Yoga.
In addition, we offer short and weekend courses in chi gung, homoeopathy, laughter yoga teacher training, Pilates, Shiatsu, Thai massage and Yoga - all bringing more health into your life.
We have an open day most terms where you can come and try out taster classes and therapies for free. We distribute our termly brochure with all the details of the classes and timetable, we offer a service where you can come in and consult on which therapy or class is right for you, and you can find a peaceful space for a cup of tea as well.
We have a shop that sells yoga mats, pure essential oils, a range of teas, toiletries, gifts and incense; and we also have a small art gallery with paintings or sculpture to ensure your visit is beautiful.
Facilities: We offer free Wi-Fi, and an adult changing space. We regret that we do not have showers. For babies and children: we have a baby changing table, comfy chairs for breastfeeding, bottle warming, toilet stool, potty and a high chair with baby-friendly utensils.
As you see we have a very wide range of activities for making your life healthier, so do please drop in to have a look around, to see if our rooms may be just what you need to hire for your own classes and meetings, or to browse in our shop and ....drink tea!
