Caterina Matteoda, Certified Ohashiatsu® Instructor
Hello there,
I'm Caterina Matteoda, Certified Ohashiatsu® Instructor and founder of Ohashiasu® in the United Kingdom.
I am passionate about natural, alternative medicine and shamanism. My interest for natural healing methods began when I had a personal encounter with the depths of depression.
My healing process began when I enrolled in the Italian Institute of Naturopathy in Urbino and started receiving Ohashiatsu® treatments that completely changed my life by improving it in every aspect.
I fell in love with Ohashiatsu® and I started studying it and graduated in 2011. I realized that I can not delegate to anyone my health, I started to take care of myself developing a new way to “feel".
From then until 2015 I worked privately as an Ohashiatsu® consultant integrating moxibustion, foot reflexology, flower therapy and Swedish massage.
It has become my mission to transform people's lives so they can have success, happiness and health.
With this in mind, in 2019 I founded Ohashiatsu® in the United Kingdom. Now I'am fully operational in both Surrey and Yorkshire
Ohashiatsu® in the UK is affiliate to Ohashi International ,USA.
