This course provides the
students the knowledge and professional techniques of the principles of
Shiatsu massage. Shiatsu
is an ancient Japanese healing method that involves applying pressure to
certain meridian points on the body to relieve pain. The human body has
twelve "meridians" that carry energy throughout the body.
Acupuncture and Shiatsu use the same points, but acupuncture uses needles,
while Shiatsu uses the gentle but firm pressure of hands. There is a
massive amount of scientific data that demonstrates why and how
acupuncture is effective. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, there
are over 800 vital energy points along the meridians that run from the
head down to the heels, especially along either side of the spinal column.
(The meridians connect the interior and exterior of the body). Every point
has specific therapeutic effects on the related organ. By massaging these
points, the corresponding body area receives specific therapeutic
treatment. It can be used to treat internal organ diseases, relieve
internal discomfort, and relax yourself; or to promote overall well-being
of the body.
Shiatsu is the most effective method for self-treatment of tension-related
ailments by using the power and sensitivity of the human hand. Shiatsu
deals with all the aspects of a person as a whole: body, emotions, mind,
and spirit as one, not as separate parts. It relaxes muscular tension and
balances the vital life forces of the body.
