The practice of Shiatsu is based on the philosophies of traditional Chinese medicine, which views health problems and illness as the imbalance of the body’s qi life force energy. Shiatsu includes the use of fingers, thumbs and palms with specific pressure on various acupressure points on the body with the rhythm of the breath. The points will depend on each client’s needs.

Shiatsu is an alternative complimentary therapy that can relieve and prevent pain, illness and imbalance in the body. This pressure point massage is effective in treating skin, muscles, nervous system, circulation, skeletal, hormonal and digestive systems. Shiatsu may improve symptoms of headaches, digestive disorders, fatigue, insomnia, fibromyalgia, stress, anxiety, PMS, back, neck, and joint pain.
