Shiatsu is holistic therapeutic bodywork developed in Japan and founded on the principles of East Asian Medicine.

A Shiatsu session can involve massage, pressure point and meridian stretching, breathwork, dietary adjustments, moxibustion, cupping, kinesio taping and corrective exercise.


Shiatsu is a powerful yet relaxing mode of healing.
