Shiatsu is more than just massage,  it is a whole-body experience;  People are often surprised that they haven’t heard of it earlier and exclaim  “Wow, that was the most amazing massage ever!”  

I would like you to experience it,  If you’ve never tried before….

The theory of traditional Chinese medicine proposes that energy, otherwise known as chi, qi (or 氣 ki in Japanese), moves through the body in well-defined channels or pathways known as meridians. Each meridian is connected to an internal organ and carries the energy of that organ’s functioning. Good health is reliant upon the harmonious flow of chi through the meridians and internal organs.

指圧  Shiatsu also known as “Acupressure” is a natural “complementary” bodywork therapy in that it works together with medical indications as needed for each individual.  It speeds up recovery, reinforces the flow of the vital energy of the body and harmonises the nervous system. It stimulates the energy systems of the body and, in turn, the physical expression of energy.

The practitioner uses palms, fingers, thumbs, elbows, knees and even feet in a combination of massage techniques, applying pressure to key points to influence and stimulate energy flow in the body. From soft and sensitive touch to deep tissue work is all fine,  I can adjust the pressure to suit the individual person.  I recommend everyone to give it a try,  you will feel more relaxed both mind and body. Stretches are also an integral part of a shiatsu treatment and some people refer to it as “Passive Yoga”.
