Gentle yet powerful pressure-based therapy to release blockages and support your body’s natural healing ability.

Shiatsu: Traditional Japanese Bodywork to Restore Balance

Shiatsu is a traditional Japanese therapeutic bodywork modality grounded in the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It focuses on the body’s energetic anatomy (meridians), as well as the muscular, fascial, joint, and spinal systems.

The therapy begins with an evaluation of your physical and energetic state. Using diagnostic insights from TCM, Alexander identifies blockages and imbalances in your organ systems and meridian networks.

FAQs

  • Expect a relaxing experience on a comfortable mat or table, wearing light clothes, with gentle pressure on key points and flowing energy work.

  • No, sessions are done fully clothed in comfortable attire.

  • Shiatsu uses firm but comfortable pressure — it may feel intense in tight areas, but should never hurt.

  • Shiatsu focuses on energy pathways (meridians) and uses pressure rather than kneading; Energetic Healing adds an extra layer of emotional and energetic rebalancing.
