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 dis-
solved 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.
Massage of a specific point on the sole of the foot may influence the corresponding organ of the
body. However, we recommend studying relevant literature and asking your doctor before using
point reflex zone massage to achieve the desired effect.
