SHIATSU TREATMENTS

Zen Shiatsu 'treatments' are performed upon a traditional-style futon placed on the ground.  Pressure is applied with thumbs, fingers, palms, elbows and knees to assess and treat disfunction within the Ki (energy) meridian system of the body.

​

Patients remain clothed and may be positioned on the side, prone, supine and/or seated during each session.  Oils are not generally used in Zen Shiatsu. 

​

Ampuku is an important tool used for assesment and treatment of the patients hara (abdomen).  Abdominal hara massage is extremely useful for resolving digestive, elimination issues and imbalances related to the nervous system.

​

Shiatsu treatments can be scheduled for 60 minute, 90 minute and 120 minute sessions.  'Bulk' packages can be purchased for a discount, as well as 'accelerated' packages for shorter, more frequent (2/week) sessions.

Of course, gift certificates are always available too!
