What Is Shiatsu / Acupressure?
Ancient wisdom meets modern healing.
Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shiatsu (meaning “finger pressure”) and Acupressure use gentle, rhythmic pressure along the body’s meridian lines the same pathways used in acupuncture to stimulate energy flow and release blockages.
Instead of needles, your therapist uses hands, thumbs, and gentle stretches to help restore equilibrium, ease pain, and reduce stress.
It’s a deeply grounding experience that leaves you feeling centered, calm, and re energized.
