Shiatsu massage includes the use of pressure and movements on specific points of the body. The human body has more than 350 acupressure points, connected with interior organs through meridians. The simulation of specific acupressure points with kneading, tapping and pressure can strengthen the functioning of interior organs, reduce physical and mental pressure and relax your body and mind. Shiatsu massage chairs reproduce the touch and pressure of shiatsu massage masters. Shiatsu is a Japanese word combining shi meaning finger and atsu meaning pressure.
