Shiatsu Massage FAQs
Shiatsu massage is a Japanese form of acupressure. Gentle kneading, pressing, tapping and stretching techniques are used to activate the body’s self-healing process to boost the body’s energy flow (qi) and reduce tension. Unlike other types of massage, shiatsu doesn’t use oil and is performed with you fully clothed.
If you’re booking in with an experienced shiatsu therapist, you should expect to pay between $75 and $199 for your massage.
Shiatsu massage targets specific areas on your body by using acupressure to unblock and restore your body’s energy (qi); in contrast, a regular massage using gentle strokes to sooth your muscles and promote relaxation.
As beneficial as a shiatsu massage is, you shouldn’t go for one if you are suffering with acute illness or disease, nor if you have a fever. If you’re uncertain, ask your shiatsu practitioner.
Your practitioner will recommend how often you should go for a shiatsu massage, but you might want to plump for once-weekly massages initially, followed by maintenance treatments every 2-4 weeks.
Drink plenty of water, and rest. You should avoid having caffeine and alcohol, and expect to need the toilet more than usual as a result of your lymph circulation flushing out toxins.
