Shiatsu, an ancient oriental technique<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

You\u2019ve probably heard of Shiatsu, an age-old healing technique developed in Japan that works by applying gentle pressure with the thumbs and palms of the hands. When used on specific points, it can affect both the body and the mind. Did you know that the Japanese Ministry of Health recommends Shiatsu to correct irregularities and improve health?

Self-shiatsu with Yumi Hosaka<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

Our Japanese expert, Yumi Hosaka, will demonstrate how to perform a shiatsu massage on yourself. In other words, she’s going to teach you self-shiatsu so you can experience Caldea wellness at home too. Pay close attention because Yumi is an official NAMIKOSGU Shiatsu instructor accredited by the Namikoshi Shiatsu Europe Association with certification and endorsement from the Japan Shiatsu College, Tokyo 😀.<\/p>\n

1) Hold your head in your hands
\n2) Apply pressure to the specified points with your fingers
