Shiatsu is a form of bodywork originating in Japan. Pressure is applied to specific areas of the body using the fingers and palms, combined with gentle stretches. The treatment may help you relax, reduce stress, release tension and support a general sense of well-being.

Many people experience Shiatsu as deeply relaxing and balancing: awareness of the body can increase, breathing may become calmer, and participants often feel more at ease and refreshed afterwards. Shiatsu is a complementary method and is not a substitute for medical treatment.
