Peter Podesva
Founder & Shiatsu Practitioner
My name is Peter Podesva. I am 41 years old and live in Vienna.
Since 2018, I have been a certified Shiatsu practitioner and a "Qualified Practitioner" member of the Austrian Association for Shiatsu.
With more than 2,000 Shiatsu treatments performed, I have gained extensive experience in various applications of Shiatsu massage. These range from relieving back pain to supporting people through life crises.
Far Eastern medicine and philosophy have fascinated me since childhood. Therefore, I am very happy to contribute to strengthening this perspective on body and mind in Europe with my Shiatsu practice Ocean Shiatsu.
My clients are close to my heart. It is important to me to truly understand the person I am treating at their core. It is simply my passion. Your health is my passion.
