What is Shiatsu?

Shiatsu originates from Japanese medicine.Shiatsu  (translates as 'Finger Pressure') involves pressing powerful points on Meridians, using gentle rotations , stretches and pressure.

 

We use our fingers, thumbs, palms and elbows to interact with Chi energy to enable a free flow of 'Chi' (Energy) around the body to Harmonise and Balance leaving you full of well being and feeling vitalised.

 

These powerful pressure points are the same as the Acupuncture points used in Veterinary Acupuncture​

 

Shiatsu can boost your immune system, improve circulation of blood and release toxins to reduce tension and re-energise you. ​Shiatsu works by treating the root of the problem, not just the symptoms.

 

Oriental Theory, in depth knowledge of Anatomy, physiology and pathology combined with the sensitive touch is essential to the Equine Shiatsu Practitioner.

 

I am a member of The Equine Shiatsu Association (tESA) which exists to ensure ethics and practices are consistent and are run to a high professional level.​

 

Shiatsu is a Complementary Treatment and is not designed to replace any Veterinary advice or treatment and permission from your Vet will be required before Shiatsu Practitioner can give a Shiatsu Session
