CLINICAL SHIATSU
with John Hickey

This two hour long instructional massage DVD will help you learn to use Shiatsu to treat back and neck pain, with advanced assessment tools and meridian pairing techniques.

WHAT IS SHIATSU?

Shiatsu is a Japanese modality that means finger pressure "tsubo" on acupressure points. It is based on Chinese medicine; however, Shiatsu is a non-invasive treatment that doesn't use needles - like acupuncture. For some, Shiatsu feels like a "tune-up" for your well- being. It is a fully clothed, non-oil massage.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

This comprehensive and carefully sequenced two-hour DVD covers the majority of the primary meridians, and it also includes multiple sequences that you can use to vary your work on each client. You’ll learn about Back-shu Points, and Ashi points from instructor John Hickey, an experienced acupuncturist and Shiatsu practioner. In-depth information includes helpful tips and techniques to help you evaluate clients in terms of excessive or deficient, chi or blood stagnation, a meridian review and much more.
