Shiatsu
Trees Beneath Mountain reflects our deep connection to the natural world. Like the tree, we draw nurturance from the earth (yin) and vibrant energy from the sky (yang). Traditional Chinese Medicine developed acupuncture as a way to release and balance the movement of these energies within the human body, allowing healing to occur naturally. Shiatsu focuses on the same points and energy pathways as acupuncture; however, manual pressure, rocking and stretching are used instead of needling.
Barefoot Shiatsu emphasizes the use of feet as well as hands. This allows practitioner and participant to work together at a greater depth, both physically and energetically. A session can be vigorous or extremely gentle depending on what is required. You may experience the relaxation of muscular holding patterns, resulting in greater ease of movement and pain relief. Each session provides a safe, restorative experience that allows you to return to your everyday life feeling refreshed and invigorated.
