Our Mission

Setsu-ko means “touching energy”. It was my grandmother’s name passed on to me whose meaning I never understood until I began this work.  As a trained dancer, I used my body as my sole vehicle for expression, communication and technique.

I received my first massage at the age of 16.  It was then that I knew my purpose in life; to make people feel as good as I did in that moment.

For over 17 years I have been working with clients, expanding my practice, travelling, teaching and learning new techniques.  It is my passion to share my experiences and insights, while ‘bridging the gap’ between the old generation and the new.  To bring back ancient teachings and cultural traditions that has healed families for centuries.

Ecole Setsuko represents a space for self-discovery, outreach and transference of knowledge.

Our clinic level will offer consultations and bodywork sessions within the community, bringing relief to those who suffer from ailments and imbalance and who cannot afford the costs of private holistic therapies, while giving our students a chance to gain hands-on experience, confidence, and communication skills.

We are a holistic school and teaching clinic, offering courses and workshops for professionals or general interest.
