Testimonials

“I am so grateful to have found my way to you and your treatment. With his very gentle and caring approach, Shaun has treated me over the past two months. When I first came to him, I didn’t really know what I needed help with, but I didn’t feel truly happy after the death of a close family member. He helped me go from being afraid to feel anything, to leaving the sessions with a bubbling sense of joy and happiness. It is a truly wonderful experience to live and feel again. With the greatest respect and gratitude and my warmest recommendation .”

“I had the most terrible back pain imaginable. I couldn’t turn in bed, put on socks or shoes normally, and I was taking 800 mg of Ipren just to sleep. Shaun worked on me, pressing and kneading areas that had nothing to do with my back, and the next day I could already feel a difference! Two days after the treatment, I was dancing on the dance floor! Four days after the treatment, I was back to my old self, able to sleep without painkillers, turn in bed without needing support, and put on socks and shoes as usual! Shaun simply has ‘the magic touch,’ and I am deeply grateful!”

I wanted to update you about my son, Josh, and how he’s doing. He is so much better since you worked on him. He said it’s been over six months since he had any stomach problems, which I attribute to your work… He is much stronger and more together, both emotionally and physically. He still watches his intake of dairy products, knowing that his stomach behaves better without milk. In any case, I want you to know how much better he’s doing. Thank you for everything, Shaun.”

“Shaun is without a doubt the best practitioner I have ever met, and I have tried many over the years due to pain. I have improved greatly physically, but the most surprising part is how much I have gained mentally. Shaun’s treatments are more than just treatments—they are a transformation for both body and mind. It is difficult to describe precisely in words because it goes far deeper than the body alone. The treatments have given me inner peace, balance, joy, new energy, better sleep, and I experience less pain. I feel stronger in myself and have begun to prioritize myself. Previously, I was “a people pleaser” and struggled with setting boundaries. I was always in high gear and didn’t feel peace or joy in my body. That is now in the past, and a new beginning has opened up for me. Shaun is a soulful, warm, and empathetic person, which creates a safe space where you feel seen and understood. I am deeply grateful for all that I have received. I hope others will give themselves the gift that Shaun’s treatment can provide. Shaun certainly receives my warmest recommendation.”

“We went to Shaun because I had heard that he had a special gift. Our little Sara (not her real name) had suffered from stress and anxiety for several months and was having trouble sleeping. Shaun didn’t ask at all about what her problems were or what was challenging her, because he was ‘more interested in where she was going instead.’ After only three very short treatments, each lasting about 3–4 minutes, where he placed his fingers on certain points on Sara’s head while we all talked about her favorite things, she is now balanced, confident, happy, and a cheeky little girl full of energy. And she sleeps really well now.

“A few years ago, I collapsed under stress and severe depression. Gradually, I ‘returned’ on reduced hours, but after a couple of years I crashed for the second time —and this time permanently. I was on the maximum dose of antidepressants, which barely kept me alive—but I could barely manage anything, not even the things that had previously brought me joy and meaning (things that could have given me even a little more quality of life and energy). Both my general practitioner and psychiatrist had tried everything, but to no avail. A previous psychological course had been completed successfully but was also concluded because no further progress could be made; and my application for early retirement went through remarkably smoothly. Everyone around me—not only family and friends, but also my former workplace and social services—was kind, understanding, compassionate, supportive, and relieving; yet there was so little ‘fuel’ left that I could not live in a way that justified continuing to exist. I loved my family, my job (which was extremely meaningful), and my sport (which I had taught for many years, a lifelong practice where the top practitioners are all over 70)—but now I could neither contribute at home nor at work, and I could not manage any training. Suicidal thoughts were a daily companion. Then I ended up with Shaun, whom I had previously heard describe his work with Japanese ‘body-mind acupressure’—a method uniquely focused on balancing not only the body but also the mind. I must honestly admit that, although I consider myself open-minded, I am trained (and very well-grounded) in Western science; so I approached the first session with openness to the idea that it might help (a little!) with my condition, but still with some skepticism—and, not least, with a slightly cynical awareness that my state could hardly get much worse, and that, in any case, I would not lose my place in the queue to the undertaker. When I rose from the table after the first treatment, I felt two things: My ‘baseline mood’ had improved slightly—not dramatically, but clearly enough that I was certain; and my fundamental energy level had risen a little—again, not dramatically, but to a level I had not felt in many years. Life felt less unbearable than before. After the second treatment, a week later, there was a similar lift compared to the first session; and I continued with weekly treatments for about four months. Along the way, there were various fluctuations, and I began to feel different emotions that had been shut down for a long time—not always pleasant, but always ‘useful’ and workable. The consistent theme throughout the process was a quiet but steadily increasing mood—especially courage for life—and a corresponding rise in energy levels. At present, I have moved to a ‘maintenance level,’ attending treatments about once a month—both to keep progress going and to address any issues early. Professionally, I remain on early retirement, and at present, this is unlikely to change. But what is crucial for me is that I am now able to be more present for my family (in the way I want to be present—not just physically), to find more peace and joy in daily life, and to resume my sport, even at a reasonable level! Suicidal thoughts have become far less frequent—and when they do appear, they are far less intense than before. My longstanding craving for sugar, which often accompanies depression (and can noticeably increase weight), has disappeared: suddenly, but quietly—midway between two treatments—I woke up and realized it had been there yesterday, but it was gone today, and it has not returned since. It has become a discreet aversion to sugar—I can eat sugary foods if I want, but literally, I am mostly free of the craving! So far, my new state of life quality has lasted several months, with no sign of faltering. My ‘old’—hopeless!—state had lasted a couple of years without improvement, so I can find no other explanation than the treatment sessions with Shaun (which were the only ‘life-changing’ intervention I undertook during that period). I have also noticed positive changes after each session, often immediately after leaving the table—showing me clearly that it is the treatments that have had the effect. I can therefore only recommend Shaun and Jin Shin Do acupressure wholeheartedly —even if you think your situation is hopeless! The acupressure really works; and beyond being extremely skilled and knowledgeable, Shaun is also an exceptional professional and person: empathetic, calm, attentive, understanding, perceptive, dedicated, and with a warm, gentle humor—in short, a rock of security and competence.”
