Book Description
With shiatsu (a Japanese word meaning "finger pressure") you can release and stimulate the energy flowing through your body -- using just your hands and fingers -- to awaken your body's natural healing modalities. The Book of Shiatsu is the authoritative, step-by-step guide to this uniquely effective therapy. The techniques offered are simple and can be used to treat a variety of health problems, particularly:
• Arthritic conditions
• Backaches
• Emotional stress
• Headaches and migraines
• Intestinal disorders
• Menstrual and reproductive problems
• Muscular pain and tension
Here you'll find more than 240 color drawings and photographs in a brand-new, accessible format, demonstrating how to give both whole-body and specialized massages, diagnose specific conditions, and work with the body's energy meridians to promote sustained health and well-being.

Complete introduction to shiatsu,
By Senta Depuydt (brussels Belgium) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Book of Shiatsu (Paperback)
One of my favorite books on shiatsu, I always recommend it for beginners. It contains the essential in 190 pages. Easy to read and to consult, well explained. Drawings are well done and give a better understanding than a lot of other books that have photos. Covers all the practical aspects (a.o. meridians, stretching, breathing, diagnosis), and offers a basic shiatsu session. Nice comments and helpful tips. Goes into important details, but not 'overloaded'. Excellent! No bla bla.

Great book,
By Corey Johnson - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Book of Shiatsu: A Complete Guide to Using Hand Pressure and Gentle Manipulation to Improve Your Health, Vitality and Stamina (Paperback)
Initially I avoided this book as I thought to go with the most well known shiatsu guides but I am happy I bought it; I am very impressed with this book. I still have only just begun looking at it properly but it seems to cover the essential elements for a beginning Shiatsu practitioner and it's very well illustrated. Simple and yet comprehensive.

Best Shiatsu Book Buy,
By tramell - Published on Amazon.com
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Book of Shiatsu (Paperback)
I was taught Shiatsu for 2 months while in massage school. I bought this book several months after graduating from school. Shiatsu was a class I didn't fully understand. Now I have a better understanding of this art and will continue to learn more about it with this book. If you are learning Shiatsu in school buy this book also to learn from alone with the book(s) given to you by the school, It will help.
