shiatsu

A bit of history….

Shiatsu developed in the XXth century in Japan. Shi means “fingers” and atsu means “pressure”. It consists of pressures with thumbs, hands, elbows and knees on specific tracks and spots, together with stretching and joint mobilisation techniques. The aim is to activate the free circulation of Qi, the vital energy. Chinese medicine works on the idea that all physical and psychological problems derives from a Qi distortion. Keeping its circulation well-balanced in the meridians improves people’s wellness and consequently their health.

The treatment is done with clothes on, lying on the futon, without creams or oils. Duration: around 60/75 minutes.
