Shiatsu - What it is:
Shiatsu (Japanese for ' finger pressure'), is a form of body work which originated in China 2000 yrs ago where it was known as anma. It then found its way to Japan where it was adapted by the Japanese, and was introduced into Britain in the 1970's. It combines the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with the knowledge of Western Ideas, and like acupuncture, stimulates the body's vital energy flow in order to promote good health.
This is achieved by using thumbs, fingers, palms, and elbows to apply pressure to the body's energy channels (meridians), and tsubos (pressure points) In addition to pressure, Shiatsu involves gentle stretching and manipulation techniques
