What is Shiatsu:

Shiatsu was developed in Japan more than 1400 years ago and works on the same principals as acupuncture. Shiatsu Massage works to rebalance the body's natural flow of energy which travels through the meridians. This energy can sometimes become stuck which can cause disharmonies and illness to manifest. By strengthening the vital organs, Shiatsu works preventatively before weakness occurs. Unlike western medicine, Shiatsu seeks to address the person holistically and not just their symptoms.

Shiatsu can help:

insomnia
headaches
anxiety
back pain
fatigue
