Shiatsu

Shiatsu promotes the good circulation of vital energy in the body, mainly in the network of meridians (energy channels). These oversee various physiological and psychological functions. An energy imbalance thus leads to various discomforts, both in the body and in the mind. Therefore, Shiatsu promotes the prevention and relief of various ailments. It is performed through pressure, mobilization and stretching on the recipient’s body. It is practiced on a futon on the ground and the receiver remains clothed.

Shiatsu originated in Japan. Depending on the approaches, it can also be based on traditional Chinese medicine. The training provides notions on the theory of the 5 elements and shows how to use them in shiatsu.

Beyond the maneuvers and knowledge acquired, the training also allows the student to develop his quality of presence and his intuition thanks to various exercises and meditations offered.
