Shiatsu is a Japanese form of healing massage which refines and encourages the natural flow of energy in the body. When this energy flows freely, we enjoy a state of balance and well-being; when it is obstructed, disease arises. Regular Shiatsu treatments, combined with careful eating habits, regular exercise and awareness, can relieve many complaints as well as enhancing your overall state of health and vitality. Catherine Sutton explains how we all have the resources to self-heal and that Shiatsu is a technique that can encourage the healing process if practised with awareness. She explains what happens during a typical treatment and outlines, step by step, how to practise Shiatsu at home.
