Shiatsu is the Japanese system of treatment that has evolved from traditional Chinese medicine. Shiatsu can be described as “acupuncture without needles”. The practitioner applies manual pressure to the acupuncture points and meridians.
The major companies in Japan offer Shiatsu to their employees as a benefit because of the enormous decrease in lost working days when workers receive regular preventative Shiatsu therapy.
Shiatsu is becoming the most popular form of oriental bodywork in the west and in the UK in particular.
The healing effect of Shiatsu is effective not only for a wide range of health problems but also for alleviating the build up of daily stress and promoting health and well being.

Shiatsu enables one to connect deeply to oneself encouraging one to slow down and to let go.
