The pressure to perform in our society is constantly increasing. More and more people are suffering from the increasing speed, which means that moments of doing nothing or listening are becoming rarer. The consequences of this are that more and more people experience temporary, persistent or recurring physical pain, emotional upsets or stress.
There are often no specific medical reasons for this. Much more often it is about finding inner balance again. This is where Shiatsu can make an important contribution.
Develop self-awareness
Shiatsu therapists use method-specific energy work and stimulate the client’s self-regulatory powers on a physical, mental and spiritual level through precise touch. The therapeutic work accompanies a process whereby the client’s self-awareness is refined and new health-promoting perspectives and actions are opened up. The therapeutic conversation supports these self-awareness processes and helps to transfer the insights gained into everyday life.
A Shiatsu treatment is a relaxing yet invigorating experience. The life energy (Qi) is stimulated and brought into its natural balance with light pressure, stretching and rotating movements. Tensions and blockages dissolve. At the same time, Shiatsu helps to improve one’s own perception and to come to rest.
Strengthen self-balancing powers
While the reason for treatment is often based on a symptom, Shiatsu is always based on a holistic approach to recovery. The gentle and appropriate pressure characteristic of Shiatsu helps those affected to relax, release blockages and strengthen their self-regulatory powers.
At the same time, coping strategies and resources of the individual are recorded and promoted through the therapeutic discussion. Shiatsu helps with headaches and migraines, musculoskeletal problems, stomach and digestive problems, menopausal symptoms and mental stress that does not require psychological care such as stress, nervousness, sleep disorders, etc.
Shiatsu has been a recognized method of complementary therapy OdA KT since 2015. The treatments are reimbursed by most health insurance companies through supplementary insurance.
