Shiatsu is a manual practice that acts on human energy flows through precise pressure modalities.  It focuses on understanding the principles of energy flow as well as favouring energy circulation throughout the body.  From Japan it has extended worldwide, including Italy, since the 1960s.  Shiatsu is based on four "pillars":

   1. respiration
   2. posture
   3. perpendicularity
   4. pressure

Shiatsu is a manual technique based mainly on pressure exerted with the thumbs, fingers, palms, elbows, knees or feet.  Shiatsu pressure must be always constant in weight, firmness and static application.  This static nature, together with its slow execution, acts not only on the physical body but also on the psyche of the patient, reaching the deepest energy level and thus all aspects of the patient’s reality, and awakening the force of self-healing.
