SHIATSU
Shiatsu from the Japanese words
shi, meaning
finger, and
atsu, meaning
pressure - is
a traditional hands-on therapy originating in Japan.
Treating the body as a whole shiatsu rebalances energies in the body
and stimulates its natural healing power using pressures of thumbs, palms, fists, elbows and knees along the meridians or energy channels.
Shiatsu beautifully combines with yoga since it uses the same approach of wholeness and lots of
therapeutic stretches and it is traditionally performed on a mat on the floor.
