What is a shiatsu?

Hi, as a Shiatsu therapist I feel qualified to answer this. Shiatsu is a Japanese Massage using the fingers, thumbs, elbows and knees to apply pressure to meridians and pressure points throughout the body. The aim is to balance the inner energies of the body to allow the body to heal itself. Shiatsu is traditionally performed fully clothed and on a thin 'futon' mat on the floor. Shiatsu means Finger Pressure in Japanese

Is shiatsu an energy technique?

Hi, as a Shiatsu therapist I feel qualified to answer this. Shiatsu isn't exactly an energy technique in the same way that Reiki is, it is a Japanese Massage using the fingers, thumbs, elbows and knees to apply pressure to meridians and pressure points throughout the body. The aim is to balance the inner energies of the body to allow the body to heal itself. So the energy being worked with is the bodies own energy, there isn't any 'channeling' of energy, although the bio-electrical energy of Shiatsu therapists has been measured as stronger and more powerful than usual peoples field.
