Joy Farmer (1966), Shiatsu practitioner in Bloemendaal: “I was born and raised in Germany. After studying fashion and design, I worked in the fashion industry for many years. In my career I was motivated by connecting with people. Even though fashion seems to be all about looks, the way people dress has a lot to do with how they feel and what they want to express. I became more and more interested in the inner perception and for that reason I wanted to find another way of relating to people. So I decided to follow a new path. I started training to become a Shiatsu practitioner and after qualifying, I started my Shiatsu, Hot Stone Massage and Seiki Practice. This change has introduced me to some exceptional people, who have helped me to discover new things about myself, time and time again. For that I owe them much gratitude. With my treatments I would like to help others enhance their life energy.”
