1. About Shiatsu massage

ShiatsuisaformofbodymassagewhichwasoriginallydevelopedinJapanaround100yearsago.Itis

basedonideasanchoredintraditionalChinesemedicine,inparticularthemeridiansystem,i.e.thepathsin

thehumanbodyalongwhichenergyisconveyed.

TheaimofanyShiatsumassageistopromotethephysical,emotionalandmentalwellbeingoftheperson

beingtreated.Todothis,energyblocksandbottlenecksinthemeridiansneedtobedissolvedandtheself-

regulatingabilityofthebodyneedstobestimulated.

Shiatsutherapistsachievethisbyexercisingpressureinflowingmovementsalongthemeridians.Although

Shiatsucanbeliterallytranslatedas“fingerpressure”,practitionersalsousetheheelsoftheirhands,their

elbowsandkneesaswellastheirfingers.Intheprocess,thetherapistwillusehisorherfullbodyweightin
