Shiatsu is an ancient Japanese bodywork method rooted in Traditional Eastern Medicine that restores balance by giving attention to the meridian channels. These energetic pathways originate in our organs, and travel throughout the entire body, carrying information of health and dis-ease. Translating to "finger pressure" and often referred to as "acupuncture without needles," Shiatsu applies compression using palms, fingers, elbows, and knees along with fluid stretching to work with the Qi (life-force energy) that influences our emotional, physical, and spiritual health.​
