Shiatsu is a form of natural healing based on principles similar to those of Acupuncture, where pressure is used instead of needles to act on pressure points and meridians.

It combines manipulative techniques, including stretching, rocking and holding, with pressure which maybe applied using thumbs, fingers, palms, forearms, elbows, feet and knees.

Shiatsu aims to promote the free flow of energy within the body by encouraging balance and healing on a physical and emotional level. It is a holistic therapy, working to stimulate harmony in body, mind and spirit.
