Some of the proven benefits include the following:  Helps release muscular tension & pain, improves circulation, increases joint flexibility, reduces mental & physical fatigue & stress, promotes faster healing time of injured muscle tissue, improves posture, & reduces blood pressure.  Massage & bodywork has also been proven to promote better sleep, enhance concentration, reduce anxiety, & positively influence the body & mind with an overall sense of well-being.

Shiatsu

A Japanese form of bodywork, Shiatsu utilizes hand pressure through palming and thumbing techniques, as well as passive stretching along energetic pathways called meridians.  It promotes self-healing and the flow of Chi (energy) by stimulating the Yin and Yang meridians and traditional acupuncture points that are linked to vital organs in the body.  Shiatsu is excellent for pain relief and a strengthening of the body’s resistance to disease and disorder.  Most Shiatsu sessions take place on the floor with the client fully clothed.  A futon cushion and pillows are used for comfort.  Note:  It is important to wear loose, comfortable clothing in order to allow ease of movement during stretching.
