Shiatsu Massage

Shiatsu is a physical therapy that supports and strengthens our self-healing capabilities. Treat the whole person - not only the body, but has also psychological, emotional and spiritual aspects.

Shiatsu originated in Japan from traditional Chinese medicine, with influences from more recent Western therapies. Although shiatsu means "finger pressure" in Japanese, in practice a practitioner uses touch, comfortable pressure and manipulative techniques to adjust the body`s physical structure and balance its energy flow. It is a deeply relaxing experience and regular treatments can alleviate stress and illness and maintain health and well-being.
