Kumiko Kanayama is a Shiatsu Grandmaster

In this episode of How I Ally, I sit down with Kumiko Kanayama, founder of the longest-running Shiatsu center in the U.S., to explore the healing wisdom of her family tradition.

We talk about:

• How Shiatsu goes beyond massage to work with energy channels and meridians
• Simple practices that ease pain, improve digestion, and bring emotional clarity
• The transformative journey of motherhood—from exhaustion to deep connection
• Why rest, presence, and small daily rituals are essential for healing

Kumiko’s story is a reminder that healing is not just physical—it’s emotional, cultural, and communal. Whether you’re a parent, caregiver, or simply seeking balance, her insights will leave you inspired.
