BENEFITS OF
ZEN SHIATSU
Benefits of A Single Treatment
The benefits of Zen Shiatsu will be evident from a single treatment. Pain, tension, stress and fatigue will be addressed as your entire system is re-energized and de-stressed. All you have to do is lie on my futon and enjoy the release.
More of a treat than a treatment, it will leave you feeling at ease and thoroughly looked after. This is because Shiatsu:
- stimulates circulation of KI energy, blood & lymph
- strengthens the body while promoting deep relaxation
- alleviates pain and discomfort
- supports the body as it seeks to return to its natural state of balance
Deep relaxation teaches you to rest your stress response &
enjoy the REST/DIGEST/HEAL mode of the Autonomic Nervous System.
This, in turn, enables better responses to real pressures when they do appear &
strengthens the body’s innate healing abilities.
Benefits of Regular Zen Shiatsu
Regular Shiatsu Therapy is used to restore and maintain health and well-being. It provides a powerful counter-balance to the pressures and toxic elements of our 21st Century lifestyle and is an effective preventative therapy. Shiatsu is a truly holistic modality that touches the entire system of the receiver: balancing the underlying causes of a condition while addressing physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual functions.
Whether used in response to a specific issue &/or as a preventative therapy, the effects and benefits of Zen Shiatsu are cumulative. They will further develop as the receiver takes greater responsibility for their health and well-being with self-development and self-healing. You will find yourself progressively more in touch with your system – addressing small needs and imbalances as they arise – while building immunity and resilience.

- In-house Shiatsu creates an association between the feel-great of Shiatsu and being at work for your corporation – building good will, enthusiasm and loyalty.
- Your staff, possibly your most important asset, will feel and function better – more motivated, more focused, more productive.
- Zen Shiatsu is pro-active, preventative and potentially cost saving. A 15-30 minute Shiatsu in a long working week is cheap compared to a full day (or more) off work.
- Best therapeutic results for the individual balanced with workplace demands: re-locating your employee – away from their chair and their screen to a separate space dedicated to their well-being – then wrapping up their dedicated time with stimulating techniques that support the transition back to work.
“The aim of shiatsu is to facilitate the harmonious flow of energy or KI in the receiver’s system to promote the health and well-being of the body, mind and spirit. Shiatsu combines well with counselling and psychotherapy. It can be used in conjunction with Western medical treatments and modalities to harmonise and strengthen the body. A therapist can explain how shiatsu can benefit your particular conditions and will support you to explore how best to maintain your health”
