What is Shiatsu?
Originating in Japan, Shiatsu is a safe and effective therapeutic form of treatment based on 5000 years of experience. It has been called Acupuncture without needles and Japanese Physiotherapy.
It involves different techniques to soothe, balance, release and/or stimulate the body systems to enable ease and relaxation to return to the body.
Shiatsu is holistic, taking into account the emotional, mental and spiritual needs, as well as the physical. It is beneficial for all individuals including those who do not have a specific condition and can be adapted for specific clients such as children, people with disabilities, pregnant women and the elderly. Clients remain dressed throughout the treatment.
Shiatsu practitioners undertake professional training for 3 years to qualify for the Diploma.

Physical pain from headaches, stiff neck, back problems, whiplash, frozen shoulder, repetitive strain injury, sports injuries and sciatica.
Reproductive issues, menstrual and menopause problems.
