Shiatsu is Japanese, and is a non-invasive physical therapy designed to stimulate the body's ability to heal itself. The technique involves the systematic application of manual pressure to the body in order to create a regulatory influence on the autonomic nervous system, thereby producing improved organ function and reduced muscle tension. This deep muscle treatment will bring to awareness any problem areas in the body and leave you with a distinct feeling of what the muscles were like before and the change in them after. Each treatment is tailored to the individuals’ body type, and the pressure is varied accordingly. You are required to wear loose clothing for the treatment, (a sweatshirt or t-shirt and tights or sweat pants). Do not wear shorts or jeans. www.shiatsuassociation.com “This is my favorite, often I fall asleep during this treatment.” John S.
