Shiatsu:

A pressure-point massage technique developed in Japan. Finger pressure is applied to specific points on the body to stimulate "meridians" (pathways through which life energy [Ki / Qi / Chi] flows). It is used to treat pain and illness as well as for general health maintenance. Practitioners apply rhythmic finger pressure at specific points on the body that combines massage, gentle physical manipulation, and pressure along channels or rivers of energy to stimulate the Chi. This physical therapy and therapeutic massage is based on traditional Chinese medicine of Acupuncture and Meridians. A technique based on the Chinese belief that disease and pain are caused by blocked Chi pathways / meridians within the body. By applying pressure to the blocked meridian, relief from pain and disease may result.
