Zen Shiatsu Asian Bodywork is a gentle, nurturing touch therapy affecting all areas of the body including muscles, ligaments, connective tissue, nerves, bones, organs, blood, and fluids.

 

The focus of Shiatsu is to restore and optimize the natural life functions of the body and mind as a whole.

 

Shiatsu can alleviate pain, tension, and nerve discomfort including headaches, muscle cramping, tension, and neuropathy. It promotes the body's innate ability to protect and repair by reestablishing the communication between all organ systems and the central nervous system.

 

Clients are treated fully clothed while receiving gentle rhythmic touch including finger pressure, rocking, gentle shaking, rotating, stretching and the working of tissue.

 

This form of touch therapy balances

Blood and fluid dynamics

Nerve responses

Muscle tension

Immune responses

Emotion regulation

Hormone functions
