Shiatsu is a therapeutic and safe hands-on therapy. Shiatsu literally means, “finger-pressure” in Japanese. It is the application of soothing and gentle pressure to various anatomical points of the body using only the thumbs, the fingers, and the palms of the hand to draw out the natural healing ability, which is in the patient’s body.
