1 | about shiatsu-massage
Shiatsu is a form of body massage which was originally
developed in japan around 100 years ago.
It is based on ideas anchored in traditional chinese
medicine, in particular the meridian system,
i.e. the paths in the human body along which energy is
conveyed.
The aim of any Shiatsu massage is to promote the
physical, emotional and mental wellbeing of
the person being treated. To do this, energy blocks
and bottlenecks in the meridians need to be dissolved
and the self-regulating ability of the body needs to be
stimulated. Shiatsu therapists achieve this by exercising
pressure in flowing movements along the meridians.
Although Shiatsu can be literally translated as "finger
pressure", practitioners also use the heels of their
hands, their elbows and knees as well as their fingers.
In the process, the therapist will use his or her full body
weight in order to generate the required pressure. your
Shiatsu massage device has rotating massage heads which
imitate the pressure and kneading motions of a Shiatsu
massage.
With the aid of this electrical Shiatsu massage device,
