What are the benefits of shiatsu and what is it good for?
Shiatsu helps harmonize the body’s energy balance by reallocating the ressources.
Shiatsu works particularly good against stress and muscles, joint and belly-tensions.
What makes Shiatsu different to other alternative therapeutic bodywork?
The practicioner uses the natural force of gravity to apply the desired pressure, adopting healthy postures using his body weight helping to be more attentive to the needs of the recipient.
Shiatsu uses self-healing mechanisms. The philosophy believes that the human body has the ressources to rebalance hisself, they just have to be triggered or acknowledged.
The practicioner observes internal but also external factors of the body and mind.

I came to Marie quite spontaneously so I didn't know what to expect from the shiatsu session Deep relaxation describes it probably the best. I felt like i could stay lying on the futon forever .
