3388 SHIATSU MASSAGE

Shiatsu is Japanese for "finger pressure;" it is a type of alternative medicine consisting of finger and palm pressure, stretches, and other massage techniques. Shiatsu massage is different in that it's performed with thumbs, elbows, and knees in addition to your hands. It also combines massage with yoga-like positions during the course of the treatment to make it more of a holistic massage. The benefit of Shiatsu is that it helps people relax and cope with issues such as stress, muscle pain, nausea, anxiety, and depression. There are two main Shiatsu schools: one incorporating elements of western anatomical and physiological theory, and the other based of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Shiatsu is performed on a mat on the floor fully clothed. Class will include live denonstration, discussion, and lots of supervised practice. Please wear loose fitting clothing and bring 2 towels and 2 sheets. No prerequisite. Material fee $10 Adina Rosenberg, see class 3405
