Shiatsu unlike massage is performed on a mat with the client fully clothed. There are energetic pathways known as meridians in the body. Shiatsu works on balancing these energetic pathways to return the body back to its natural healing process. In order to balance the meridians the therapist uses thumbs, palms and knees to release stagnant energy. Shiatsu is a physical treatment with assisted stretches along with energetic balancing.
