“Finger Pressure” This is the meaning of the Japanese word Shiatsu. A Shiatsu massage is a very relaxing and stress relieving technique that uses palms and fings to apply pressure to various areas for your entire body.

So that you can maintain great health and keep illness away, a shiatsu massage uses hand pressure and various pressure techniques to correct the imbalances that you may have in your body.

So how does a Shiatsu Massage work?

Very early forms of massages used quite a bit if squeezing, stroking, rubbing and even tapping on the body in order to engage the circulation of the area and the different muscles which is sometimes a little more difficult with early forms of massage. A Shiatsu Massage is very simple and a lot easier to do!

You can still apply pressure with using your palms fingers and thumbs but you will need to focus on specific points of the body. Even though it is very simple to do this massage the benefits are really great and can ensure that your body’s energy is flowing very smooth throughout your body.

Just look at it this way when you body’s energy is flowing smoothly and powerfully throughout your body it also carries away energy that has been used which also contains toxins. The chinese believe that this energy which is called “chi” circulates throughout your body in different channels called meridians. So when you get these flowing it can catually help you with headaches, sleeplessness, depression which is considered being blocked chi so now this blocked che is cleared and restored.
