What Is A Shiatsu Massage?
Shiatsu Massage is a Japanese style therapy which can safely provide relief from a number of medical problems while promoting relaxation and health. A shiatsu session at Acupuncture Jerusalem lasts approximately 60 minutes. Shiatsu massage involves use of the fingers, palms and thumbs all over the body or focusing on particular parts of the body in need of relief.
This traditional technique traces back to 1320, when anma, a Japanese massage and shiatsu’s predecessor, developed as a common practice. 300 years later, anma became popular in tandem with acupuncture. Today, there are all different styles stemming from philosophical and theoretical differences. Some forms focus on acupressure points while others emphasize the flow of energy.
Top 5 Benefits Of Shiatsu Massage Explained
1) Relaxation
Shiatsu is one of the most effective massage forms for pure relaxation. Take advantage of a shiatsu massage to experience an hour of therapy which not only relieves the body but the mind as well.
2) Helps with Anxiety and Mood
Shiatsu is capable of lowering the blood pressure and heart rate that result from pent up anxiety by relieving anxiety itself. Additionally, a shiatsu massage can promote mood and mental health. By releasing serotonin and endorphins, anxiety will subside and mood will improve during and following a shiatsu massage.
3) Muscle Tension and Muscle Pain
Muscle spasms, cramping, and stagnancy benefit from the physical pressure applied by shiatsu. Stretching and pulling during the massage relieves muscle aches. Putting therapeutic pressure on the necessary areas will stimulate circulation to release tension.
4) Relief from Ailments
Bodily ailments including chronic pain, indigestion, migraines, insomnia and more can be treated by a shiatsu massage. Shiatsu massage therapy stimulates the release of pain blockers, relieving the body from pain which may stem from a number of sources. Consult with our head of practice to learn whether your ailment may be suitably treated by a shiatsu massage.
