What is Shiatsu
The translation of the Japanese word ‘Shiatsu’ is ‘finger pressure’.
The primary aim of Shiatsu is to promote energy flow, which serves to enhance circulation of blood,
lymphatic fluid etc. It rebalances the digestive, circulatory, respiratory, nervous and immune systems,
which become unbalanced as your body redirects resources to deal with everyday stress.
In Shiatsu, the practitioner stimulates and balances the body through applying pressure and massaging
acupuncture points and meridians.
This stimulates the body's self healing capability and helps to maintain or regain health.
The SMC-3000 Shiatsu massage cushion has rotating massage heads which imitates the pressure and
kneading motions of a real Shiatsu massage.
