We\u2019re sure that you’ve heard of shiatsu, but how much do you really know about this oriental therapy?
\nBelow are some details about shiatsu massages and their benefits, as well as their main indications and contraindications (although there are not many, they should be taken into consideration).<\/span><\/p>\n

What is Shiatsu?<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

Shiatsu (\u6307 [shi], \u00abfinger,\u00bb and \u5727 [atsu], \u00abpressure on areas of the body\u00bb) is a Japanese technique that uses pressure from the fingers and palms to balance the body\u2019s flow of energy, while also improving its ability to heal itself. The therapy encompasses a variety of holistic treatments (dealing with the body and mind as a whole) which consider health to be the harmonisation of vital energies.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

Indications for shiatsu treatment<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

As a gentle, non-aggressive therapy, shiatsu is suitable for virtually everyone, except those who suffer from infectious or skin diseases, inflammatory conditions, liver or pancreatic problems, severe intestinal obstruction, or febrile states. In these cases, a doctor should be consulted first to determine whether or not this type of therapy is appropriate.
\nFor all other situations where the objective is to improve overall health, shiatsu can be a pleasurable therapy that is particularly beneficial for:
\n\u2022 Exhaustion, fatigue, tiredness, lack of energy
\n\u2022 Depression, anxiety, stress, insomnia
\n\u2022 Menstrual pain
\n\u2022 Hypertension
\n\u2022 Migraines, headaches, dizziness
\n\u2022 Muscle and joint pains, osteoporosis
\n\u2022 Gastrointestinal disorders, ulcers, heavy digestion, heartburn
\n\u2022 Asthma and immune disorders
\n\u2022 Recovery from sporting injuries
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

How can shiatsu help me?<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

Shiatsu provides many benefits for the body and mind, as it is able to create a state of deep relaxation that promotes the proper functioning of bodily systems. Furthermore, it also boosts blood and lymphatic circulation; balances the nervous, respiratory and digestive systems; stimulates the immune system; and has a deep purification effect on the body.
\nIts ability to release us from stress and anxiety produces a noticeable improvement in physical and mental performance.<\/span><\/p>\n
