Shiatsu is a complementary bodywork therapy that originated in Japan and it follows the same principles of Acupuncture but needles are not used. Our mental, physical, emotional and spiritual levels are seen as a connected whole and that life energy, or Qi, flows through the body in pathways called meridians. Symptoms occur when the energy stops flowing freely. Holding, pressing and stretching techniques are sensitively applied to specific parts of the body to rebalance and revitalise the Qi flow.
