Shiatsu for Massage Practitioners with Suzanne Yates
Shiatsu shares many themes with massage, and this course helps you to understand more about these common threads, as well as developing new skills and insights into your work. Shiatsu literally means finger pressure and draws on the eastern understanding of the body to harmonise energy and promote well-being. It includes using meridians and acupuncture points, as well as muscle work and stretches.
Though usually done on the floor through the clothes, in this workshop we will mainly use the couch and work with oils directly on the skin.
- Understanding how meridians affect the body's physical energy - e.g. muscles, lymph, specific organs
- Learning some practical techniques which integrate into massage work e.g. stretches, some meridian and point work, ways of touching the body
- Reading the body's posture through meridian and muscle diagnosis
- Exploring your own energy through self-healing meridian exercises and meditation
