Shiatsu
Shiatsu Bodywork
Shiatsu is a traditional bodywork system from Japan with its origin in the oriental system of medicine. Energy channels (the same as used in Acupuncture) called Meridians are worked with to bring a state of balance to the recipient. 'Ki energy ('Chi' in China) flows through the channels and can sometimes become unbalanced - deficient in one area of the body and stagnant in another. By gentle pressure, holding, rotations, stretches and other more dynamic bodywork techniques 'Ki' energy within the person is encouraged to flow. Once this energy is flowing the individual's self-healing abilities will naturally develop and this re-balancing of energy can help ease and support many symptoms. Recipients often report feeling a deep sense of relaxation and more body aware.
