What is SHIATSU?
Shiatsu is a manual technique of Japanese origin that
involves pressure from palms and fingers
on all points and areas of the body.
This pressure can be
used to treat different problems such as stress,
anxiety, back pains, stiff necks, constipation, menstrual pains, headaches,
post-pregancy problems and so on.
Regular Shiatsu treatment
has a preventive effect and maintains
physical equilibrium once it has been achieved. Working on the whole body, it treats
not only symptoms but also causes. The innate mechanism of self-healing that we possess is activated by
this technique whose effectiveness will be more or less rapid, depending on the
state of each patient, their age, their
habits and their confidence in the treatment. Shiatsu is a therapeutic
technique that uses pressure, not friction. For that reason no oil
or creams are used and massage is carried out with the patient wearing comfortable
cotton clothes provided during each consultation. Pressure with palms and
fingers goes deeply into the organism.
The Japanese Ministry of Health defines Shiatsu as:
“Treatment which, through application of pressure with fingers and the
palms of the hands on determined points, corrects irregularities, maintains and
improves health, contributes to the easing of certain illnesses (discomforts,
pains, stress, nervous disorders, etc.) activating at the same time the human
body’s capacity for self-healing. It has no side effects.”
In the words of the
Grand Master
Tokujiro Namikoshi,
founder of this
therapy in Japan:
“Shiatsu is like a mother´s love,
pressure on the body stimulates
the
source of life”.
SHIATSU THERAPY AND ITS BENEFITS
What is a Shiatsu session like?
Before the session the
therapist checks the general condition of the patient, writing the details down
on a record card held for each patient.
Various questions will be asked about
the reasons for the consultation,
the quality of sleep, the types of food eaten,
the type of work, the general emotional state, because we consider that all
these factors can influence the present condition of the patient. With this
information the therapist can determine the most effective treatment for each client.
The session takes
place in a pleasant room with a special couch
on which the client remains throughout the session. As the patient
receives the treatment a general feeling of rest and relaxation grows.
Each session usually
lasts from 50 minutes approximately.
Traditional Shiatsu
therapy is taken in comfortable cotton
clothes.
At the end of the
first session the therapist gives an evaluation and
suggests follow up
treatment including exercises that can help recuperation.
The number of sessions depends on the general state of each person. In
general when there is high vitality recovery is usually rapid whereas with a
person low in vitality and energy recovery tends to be a little more prolonged.
The most common feeling after a Shiatsu session
1.- A feeling of relaxation and calm that can last all
day and finally results in deep and
curative sleep.
2.- Relaxation because the nervous system is freed from tension allowing
mind and body to become relaxed and rested.
3.- Increased vitality which enables one to
accomplish the day´s tasks with alacrity.
4.- Relief of pain, with pain symptoms tending to vanish. Shiatsu augments the self-healing capacity of the body, alleviating pain without side
effects.
5.- Discomfort or pain.
The Japanese word “Menken” indicates
an
organic reaction which is considered positive. In a few people Shiatsu
produces occasional disagreeable feelings like stiffness or pain. As the body
begins to release toxins it can
produce such feelings. However,
after a few days, it is usual to feel better
than before the first session.
Why Shiatsu?
It´s not necessary to
be ill to benefit from Shiatsu.
As Shiatsu increases the energy level
stress, anxiety and
tensions are reduced, allowing a growth of general
vitality
and an improvement in body posture and general body
functioning,
producing a great sensation of well
being.
Shiatsu is particularly advisable for:
Work stress, chronic fatigue, lumbar pain, muscular
contractions,
pregnancy, headaches, sports injuries,
emotional stress, anxiety, cervical
pain, frozen shoulder,
digestive upsets, insomnia, fibro-myalgia, etc.

JAPANESE LIFTING
This new neuro-sensory therapy brings youth and luminosity
to the face
and provides new energies to face the rhythm of
daily life. Using a mixture of
facial massages Japanese
Lifting helps tone facial skin and tighten facial muscles.
Japanes Lifting is a
new beauty treatment with a key aim: to offer the public a non-aggressive
alternative that helps brake
the effects of the passage of time on the face.
So, Japanese Lifting, originally conceived in
the East, uses Facial Reflexology
techniques
as a primary tool for a face lift in a
natural
way, with all the steps carried out manually. Moreover the combination
of reflexology
therapy and lifting allows regulation of skin moisture and
improves the physical, chemical and emotional condition of the entire body.
The most notable
advantages of Japanese Lifting are:
-Wrinkles are reduced:
in this way the face is improved so wrinkles are unnoticeable, but without changes
to the physiognomy.
-The effects of the
face lift are immediately noticeable (practically from the very first session).
-It is a painless
treatment.
-It produces no
swelling or inflammation.
-It can be repeated
whenever convenient.
-It is a relaxing
therapy which simultaneously acts on the entire body.
