Shiatsu Massage

Shiatsu Massage is an alternative technique involving manual pressure applied to specific points on the body to relieve tension and pain. According to the Japanese healing treatment, the massage of Shiatsu (meaning finger pressure) uses thumbs, fingers, elbows, and knees to concentrate pressure at certain energy pathways in the body called meridians. Massage, also known as acupressure, reduces muscle tension and fatigue and is thought to improve blood circulation in the body and the lymphatic system's function.
