Shiatsu

Shiatsu is a holistic touch therapy that originates from Japan, and is influenced by Chinese and Western knowledge. It is based on similar principles to acupuncture but the shiatsu practitioner uses hands rather then needles. Shiatsu acts to re-balance the body’s energy channels of vital energy (known as ‘Ki’) to promote well being, support good health and prevent illness. It’s application and use in the relief of physical and emotional dis-ease is as remarkable as it’s power in creating health and beauty through relaxation and the release of tension.

Ki is food,

Ki is metabolism,

Ki is also a concept..

Ki is an abstraction that straddles

inner and outer worlds because

Ki is the world created by the objective world

that powers our subjective world.

Ki is bio-electricity

Ki is visible through its effects, like electricity.

The effects of Ki is in our actions of the body;

sleeping, laughing, running etc.

Ki is the energy produced by each cell,

the binding force

between those cells and the work they produce;

Life Force

Ki is intelligent metabolism, team metabolism, 

cellular energy, organ energy,

the energy of communication and of

intelligent cooperation.

Ki runs in the body in channels

that are formed in between facia."
