A great study guide through Shiatsu school.....,
By Stephen B. Salkof "Tiger Mountain Taijiquan" (Philadelphia, Pa. USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)
This review is from: Shiatsu Theory and Practice: A comprehensive text for the student and professional (Hardcover)
Last year, I graduated from International School of Shiatsu in Doylestown, Pa. Prior to this school, I attended another Shiatsu school as well. Through both schools, this book was used as the main reference for me. I highly recommend this to anyone studying this wonderful art. It has all the detailed meridians, both standard and "Zen" and extensive info on the 5 elements. Buy it....you'll love it!!!

The One Zen Shiatsu book needed,
By Evgeny Kolev - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Shiatsu Theory and Practice: A comprehensive text for the student and professional (Hardcover)
It is expensive. And goes quite deep. But if one is serious about learning Zen Shiatsu - this is The Book.Great introduction into theory. Amazing discussion for each element and meridian - linking the emotional, physical and energy functions. Priceless comparison with the TCM approach. The language is rich, colorful and so easy and pleasant to read. I've been thinking about selling back some of my other ZS book and keep only this one. |
