by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare in Japan.
In other countries by governing bodies set up by Shiatsu practitioners.

 Shiatsu is received wearing loose clothing on a tatami or futon on the floor.
 Shiatsu technique refers to the use of fingers and palm of one's hand to apply pressure to particular sections on the surface of the body for the purpose of correcting the imbalances of the body, and
for maintaining and promoting health.
A method contributing to the healing of specific illnesses.

Shiatsu received regularly promotes well-being and vitality.

Shiatsu works on points called Tsubo.
Tsubo are places on the body where energy called Chi in Chinese and Ki in Japanese gathers to maintain and balance your individual universal energy.
Shiatsu is a mind, body,  spirit practice. The balance of these three energies should work in harmony as one. Each of the three energies are changing and moving all the time with the nature of the weather which is triggered by the Sun and Moon in our known universe.
This affects
our sentient, conscious life experiences just like weather changes effect our physical health. We all experience the positive and negative Shiatsu help us come to terms with it.

Shiatsu can include exercise or dietary advice to support and sustain the treatment. Build
homeostasis. A Greek word for natural balance.
 Sometimes a visit to a dentist or doctor is recommended.
A medical prescription or procedure can be responsible for some conditions dating back for years. Doctors are consulted to check prescription dosage and for a more scientific diagnosis. The idea is to learn how to re-tune our body, mind and spirit to be open and able to receive the necessary nutrients for good health allowing toxins to pass through you not into you.

A moving meditation within yet outward looking, introspection and extrospection, microcosm and macrocosm or yin and yang, Sun and Moon, fire and water.
