What is Shiatsu?

Shiatsu is a traditional, Japanese healing method.

similar to acupuncture, but uses finger pressure instead of needles.

Its name comes from two Japanese words "Shi"or finger and "atsu"or pressure.

The shiatsu practitioner uses palms, fingers, thumbs, knuckles, elbows, to work on the body`s a meridians or energy channels. Its a from of "touch communication, " and is a safe and effective preventive medicine.

It helps to balance a persons energy flow, and strengthen the vital organs.

For Shiatsu, you wear loose clothing,

Shiatsu treatment is holistic, addressing the whole body rather than focusing on the one area wher symptoms are most obvious.

A Shiatsu session usually lasts an hour.

What is reflexology?

Reflexology is a form of bodywork that focuses primarily on the feet.

How does reflexology work?

The underlying theory behind reflexology is that there are "reflex" areas on the feet and hands that correspond to specific organs, glands, and other parts of the body. For example:

the tips of the toes reflect the head

the heart and chest are around the ball of the foot

the liver, pancreas and kidney are in the arch of the foot

low back and intestines are towards the heel

I believed that certain areas on the feet and hands were linked to other areas and organs of the body. This concept was furthered by physiotherapist Eunice Ingham into the modern practice of reflexology.

Practitioners believe that applying pressure to these reflex areas can promote health in the corresponding organs through energetic pathways

What is Deep Tissue Massage?

Deep Tissue Massage is a massage technique

that focuses on the deeper layers of muscle tissue.

It aims to release the chronic patterns of tension in the body

through slow strokes and deep finger pressure on the contracted areas,

either following or going across the fiber's of the muscles,

tendons and fascia.

Why get a deep Tissue Massage?

It feels good and it is beneficial to your health.

When muscles are stressed,

they block oxygen and nutrients,

leading to inflammation that builds up toxins in the muscle tissue.

A deep-tissue massage helps loosen muscle tissues,

release toxins from muscles

and get blood and oxygen circulating properly.
