Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about Shiatsu Massage in Manchester

What is shiatsu massage?

Shiatsu is traditional bodywork and healing practice from Japan. In Japan, the term shiatsu means finger pressure. While performing a shiatsu massage, the massage therapist will relieve stress and heal health problems by applying pressure on specific acupressure points on the body using his fingers. Also, he will make massage therapy more effective by applying varied and rhythmic pressure. You have the option to choose from several types of shiatsu massage. Hence, you can get a shiatsu massage to relax your body and mind in about 60 to 90 minutes.

How does shiatsu massage work?

In addition to being Japanese bodywork, shiatsu therapy is developed based on traditional Chinese healing practices. Massage therapy is developed based on the theory that a person experiences physical and mental health problems when the flow of vital energy or Qi is disrupted or imbalanced. While performing shiatsu massage, the therapist focuses on promoting relaxation and healing by making Qi flow seamlessly through pathways or meridians. The therapist boosts the flow of vital energy by stimulating the acupressure points using finger pressure.

Can I choose from several styles of shiatsu massage?

Many massage centres and spas in Manchester allow you to choose from many styles of shiatsu massage, including five-element shiatsu, Zen shiatsu, ohashiatsu, and ashiatsu. You can opt for five-element shiatsu to relieve stress and treat health problems by promoting and balancing the flow of Qi. While performing five-element shiatsu, the therapist stimulates acupressure points using finger pressure. But the therapist stimulates the acupressure points by applying pressure using his thumbs, palms, fists, elbows, and knees while performing Zen shiatsu. Likewise, the therapist stimulates your muscles by applying pressure using his feet while performing ashiatsu.

What benefits can I leverage by getting a shiatsu massage?

Several studies have highlighted the effectiveness of shiatsu massage in relieving stress and preventing stress-related health problems. But you can take shiatsu massage as an alternative therapy to heal a wide range of health problems – headaches, anxiety, insomnia, back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, arthritis, sciatica, constipation, premenstrual syndromes, and menstrual problems. A trained massage therapist will personalize shiatsu massage by targeting the appropriate areas of your body while applying finger pressure.

Does shiatsu massage have any serious or adverse side effects?

You need not manage any serious or adverse side effects after getting a shiatsu massage. But the shiatsu massage techniques make your body release toxins. As your body releases, you will experience minor side effects like headaches, muscle stiffness, stomach upset, diarrhea, frequent urination, and fatigue for about 12 hours after the massage session. However, you can manage these temporary side effects simply by taking adequate rest and avoiding strenuous activities.

How can I get a shiatsu massage safely?

You can get shiatsu massage safely only when the Japanese bodywork is performed only by a trained and experienced massage therapist. However, you should not get this style of massage if you are pregnant or you are undergoing treatment for cancer, heart diseases, osteoporosis, infectious skin diseases, or blood clotting disorders. Also, you must not get a shiatsu massage while recovering from surgery.
