Shiatsu

Shiatsu is an extremely relaxing manipulative treatment based on the same principles as acupuncture. However, instead of needles, massage techniques and acu-pressure are used to correct the flow of qi. The result is a feeling of balance and a sense of well being.

Physically, this treatment has the effect of stimulating blood and lymph circulation thus helping to detoxify the body and strengthen the immune system. On a subtle level, treatment helps to mobilise the individual’s healing process.

Shiatsu can be used to treat specific ailments or as a powerful means of inducing relaxation. There is no need to undress for this treatment so please wear loose comfortable clothing.
