Acupressure is a specialised form of pressure massage based on traditional Japanese techniques, similar to those used in acupuncture and shiatsu, that is combined with Sports Massage to adapt the session to respond specifically to the needs of each client. This results in a unique, adaptive and effective massage. It takes place, fully clothed, in an ergonomically designed chair predominantly on the upper body. It is a quick, highly enjoyable treatment that works to improve the flow of energy throughout the body.
There are very specific physical reactions to stress, over-use of computers, lack of exercise and other modern day ills - muscular tension, over-sensitive nerves, aches and pains, headaches, RSI, fatigue, reduced immune system function, restricted movement of joints, back pain, digestive problems and sleep disorders. Therapeutic Acupressure Massage can help by working directly on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems and indirectly on the flow of energy.
