Shiatsu
Related to Acupuncture but without using needles, Shiatsu works along meridians or energy pathways. The purpose is to balance the circulation of vital energy in the body and promote the self-healing process which is disturbed when we become ill or feel run down.
By applying stretches, gentle joint mobilisation and pressure to points along the meridians, tension is released and weak areas toned. This rebalances the energy, relaxes the body, calms the mind, helps regulate the function of the organs and improve circulation.
Shiatsu can also detect energy imbalances before there are any symptoms, and as such Shiatsu is used widely as a wonderful preventive therapy which will leave you feeling both relaxed and reinvigorated.
Particularly effective for any stress related problems, headaches, tension, depression and fatigue, as well as digestive disorders and back pain.
