What is a shiatsu session like?
You should wear comfortable clothes (cotton training pants, preferably long-sleeved t-shirt and socks). The sessions are performed on a special “futon” mattress.
Each session might be completely different than the previous one, a characteristic that has made shiatsu so popular, as to be the most preferred kind of massage. It lasts about 1 hour and 15 minutes. The first session lasts a little longer due to the medical history recording.
How many sessions are needed?
For chronic cases a set of 6 to 7 sessions are enough. For more acute cases 1-2 sessions repeated occasionally are enough to show the first results. Each person though, is unique and special and reacts according to the way of life that has been used to.
How much does it cost?
One Shiatsu session costs 50€. House visits cost 70€.
