What is Shiatsu?
Shiatsu is a form of Japanese massage or bodywork that originated in Japan. Literally translated shiatsu means finger pressure. In shiatsu the thumbs (elbows, knees and fingers are also used) are used to manipulate the flow of Qi or energy in the body to prevent and treat conditions such as insomnia or shoulder pain.
The theories of shiatsu go back literally thousands of years. Stone acupuncture needles have been found in China dating from around 8,000 B.C. The theories of shiatsu and acupuncture are almost identical as they both use the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). In fact, shiatsu is sometimes referred to as acupressure. Interestingly, Shiatsu was only recognized as a distinct modality in 1964 in Japan. Shiatsu is a modern refinement of a modality with an ancient history.
How Does Shiatsu Work?
Shiatsu manipulates the Qi or energy of the body by regulating its flow within an individual. Different people and different areas of the body have different needs. For example your shoulders may feel tense and hard to the touch while your lower back may ache and feel soft to the touch. The shiatsu therapist will treat the shoulders with a firm fairly quick pressure, and the lower back with a gentle, slower pressure. The difference in the duration and depth of pressure applied will change the way the Qi or energy flows in the client which rebalances the body, and leaves the client feeling healthier and more balanced with less pain and stress.
Two-handed Technique
Shiatsu therapists generally use a two-handed technique. One hand manipulates a particular meridian or line of Qi in the body and the other is placed on an adjoining area of the body. The resting or ‘mother’ hand helps to calm the client, and is useful in feeling the results of the working or ‘child’ hand. In this way the shiatsu therapist receives constant feedback about the treatment, and the client feels reassured and relaxed.
What Does Shiatsu Treat?
Shiatsu can be helpful for many conditions, but is also an excellent way to prevent disease. Shiatsu is holistic meaning it can treat emotional problems as well as physical ones. Many people for example feel tension in their shoulders or upper back during stressful periods of their lives. Shiatsu and the system of Traditional Chinese Medicine see these 2 symptoms as related to one issue, and not as separate entities.
In private practice a practioner have treated a client with asthma who decreased the use of his puffer by about half. The same treated a client with chronic insomnia who immediately after the first treatment had a solid 7 hours of sleep. Also helped clients rid themselves of headaches, back pain, and chronic stress as well as dealt with the aftermath of physical abuse, helping to reprogram the body’s response to touch.

This brief presentation gives you an idea of how shiatsu works and what it can do for people’s wellbeing and life quality. It is not the solution only, however, it is a good and well worthy compliment to other first hand resolutions ( as verbal support, physiotherapy, and public professional health help). If you have never tried it before, I encourage you to try a treatment session or take a short introductory course to learn more about shiatsu and it’s wonderful benefits.
Massage chair or real hands? Well, it is just a matter of time and money. And what your body prefer at the moment of course. You can use both ways actually. It is going to be quite expensive over time to pay a massage therapist every week and you have soon enough saved up to your own massage chair.
You shall not use the electrical massage chair if you have measured or observed above average high blood pressure it has been suggested. However, in other cases these chairs replaces a live massage therapist and many people have good use of them as you can get relaxed in the comfort of your home whenever you like. It is also an art to find that good therapist with those warm caring hands taking care of your tensioned body muscles unless you are married with one.
It is also important that you configurate the setting for you particularly so the muscles is ‘massaged’ where it shall be given. Some people are shorter some taller and it is not good if you receive hard massage over bones and the spine channel. So set the massage chair up so it is comfortable for you. Test and feel.
The massaging chairs for sale displayed above are deeply discounted compared to new ones found in a local store so it is well worth to checking them out. Hope you will find something that fit’s your need. Thanks for visiting and welcome back.
