Questions
About shiatsu massage
Is shiatsu painful?
No. The pressure is firm but comfortable, and we adjust it to you at any time during the session.
Do I keep my clothes on for shiatsu?
You stay comfortably draped; shiatsu works well with steady pressure through a sheet, and we make sure you are completely at ease.
How is shiatsu different from Swedish?
Swedish uses long, flowing strokes; shiatsu uses steady finger and palm pressure at points along the body.
