Shiatsu Therapy
Shiatsu Therapy is a traditional Japanese manual therapy using acupressure to balance the energies that flow along well-defined passageways called meridians.
Shiatsu is performed with the client lying on a Japanese mat (futon) on the floor with the client fully clothed. It is recommended that you bring loose comfortable clothes to wear during your treatment.
Massage treatments are claimable from most private health funds.
