Shiatsu

A hands on therapy that originated in Japan using the theory of Chinese Medicine based on the belief that energy flows throughout the body in channels or meridians. This is the same as the basis of Acupuncture treatments, however the form of Shiatsu (known as Shin Tai) practised at Remedy focusses on specific channels and no needles are used in this hands on therapy.

WHAT HAPPENS DURING A TREATMENT?

You will be asked about your medical history, general health, lifestyle, diet and concerns. Treatments usually take place on a futon and you remain fully clothed (please wear loose trousers and a cotton top). The treatment involves a range of techniques from gentle holding, dynamic stretches, joint mobilisation, muscle energy techniques and connecting with and working on energy channels.

Each treatment is specifically tailored to your needs at the tme.
