About Shiatsu
Shiatsu uses the same energy pathways (called meridians) and fundamental concepts used for thousands of years in Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Sometimes the energy (ki or chi) flow is disrupted or diminished and we may experience physical discomfort including muscular pain, headaches, digestive disturbances, PMT, menopausal symptoms, swelling, skin irritations, excess mucous, foggy headedness, memory loss, stress, anxiety, irritability and other emotional imbalances.
The Shiatsu Healer uses touch working on and off
the body to release blockages in the meridians,
much like removing a dam in a river, to influence
the flow of ki around the body which might be
in pain, stagnant, tired or depleted.
This then supports your own healing potential
to balance, harmonise and energise your
own energy.
