Shiatsu from Japan
Shiatsu is a form of therapeutic bodywork from Japan. It uses kneading, pressing, soothing, tapping, and stretching techniques and is performed on a floor mat, without oils through light, comfortable clothing.

The Shiatsu therapist accesses the Qi through points along the meridians. Health is present when there is abundant Qi in the meridians and the flow is unobstructed. When the Qi becomes deficient or out of balance, or the flow is obstructed, symptoms arise. Seemingly minor signs emerge, such as regular colds, headaches, chronic fatigue, muscular pain, or anxiety are indications of the imbalance of Qi. Shiatsu stimulates and harmonizes the flow of Qi throughout the body.
