How shiatsu treatment is performed?

Each treatment is preceded by an interview in which the client tells his/her needs. The therapist will evaluate the person's health overall and will undertake a personalized path.

The treatment can last between 60 and 90 minutes according to the client's needs and will be performed on the futon (a cotton mattress according to Japanese tradition). The client is lying on the ground in a comfortable position which allows him/her to completely abandon himself/herself.

It is advisable to be dressed comfortably in light clothing to be able to perform stretching or pressure on the body well and accompany the client in deep relaxation and awareness.

In case it is not possible to lie on the ground, this technique can also be practiced while sitting.

At the end of the treatment the client can remain lying down for a few minutes to allow the vital energy to continue doing its work.
