What is shiatsu
Shiatsu is a Japanese form of pressure point massage, which has already been practiced since the sixteenth century. When practising Shiatsu, the therapist presses on particular points of the body to locate disturbances in the muscles, nerves and organs. This massage addresses the self-healing powers in the body, which every human body has by nature.
For decades, millions of people in Japan, China and India have gone to a pressure point masseur before they consult a traditional doctor. And in Japan, Shiatsu has been approved by the Health Care Department as a fully acknowledged therapeutic treatment method since 1957.
