Our bodies have an amazing capacity to heal themselves, but all too often in our fast paced society, we do not give our bodies the opportunity for this to happen. The build-up of stress and tension in our bodies can lead to all sorts of health problems. Shiatsu can help us to learn a different way of being in the world - one where we can slow down a little, become more aware of our physical bodies, and learn to let go.
The benefits of Shiatsu can be experienced by anyone: young or old, fit or unfit, male or female, in good health or poor health. Shiatsu helps our bodies to tap in to its own healing potential. Many conditions can be relieved through receiving Shiatsu, such as:
stress, anxiety and depression
muscle, joint and back pain
headaches and migraine
menstrual problems
chronic fatigue and ME
digestive disorders
Of course, you may not have an identifiable disorder, but more a general feeling of being 'just not right'. The beauty of Shiatsu is that it can address any imbalances in your body before they develop into symptoms of dis-ease.
You may also, of course, be quite fit and well. Great! You probably want to keep things that way. In this respect, Shiatsu can also be of benefit to maintain your wellbeing, and help prevent ill health from arising.
