Beyond all else, it's about people. This page is to help you decide whether I’m a practitioner you’d like to visit. No two therapists are the same, regardless of modality.

Really, there are so many sites saying pretty much the same thing about theory and history that I won’t say it all again here. In a nutshell:
Shiatsu (指圧 Japanese from shi, meaning finger, and atsu, meaning pressure) is a traditional Japanese hands-on therapy based on anatomical and physiological theory and is regulated as a licensed medical therapy with the Ministry of Health and Welfare in Japan. Shiatsu is an evolving form. Various styles (called Derivative Shiatsu) incorporate (to differing degrees) aspects of Japanese massage traditions, Chinese Medicine practice, and "Western" anatomy and physiology.Hands, arms, elbows, even knees and feet are often used during a shiatsu massage. With experience and care, a practitioner's style evolves beyond theory and routine into their own unique approach.

I had the privilege of spending 2 years in dedicated study under the guidance of Tetsuro (Ted) Saito. Years later, he continues to nurture and support my development. For more about Ted and his research, follow the link to ShinSo Shiatsu.
