Shiatsu is a traditional hands on therapy with its roots in Japanese and Chinese Medical systems. It is primarily a Japanese form of massage, using pressure on the energy pathways of Chinese acupuncture in order to rebalance the flow of vital energy or ’Ki’. This holistic principle of rebalancing ‘Ki’ helps restore health, vitality and wholeness physically, emotionally and psychologically, and creates a deeper sense of well-being with a more harmonious feel for life. |
