What Is Shiatsu Massage?

Based on ideas in traditional Chinese medicine, Shiatsu Massage therapy is a form of Japanese bodywork. Shiatsu relies on using the fingers, thumbs and palm to apply pressure to various areas of the body’s surface to help heal common ailments and conditions, and correct imbalances in the body. Pressure applied to points on the body promotes energy flow and corrects disharmonies throughout your body.

Benefits of Shiatsu Massage

Shiatsu is used to treat a wide range of chronic conditions, such as headaches, PMS, digestive disorders, fatigue, insomnia, fibromyalgia, stress, anxiety, and musculoskeletal pain, including low back, neck, and joint pain.

Shiatsu massage regulates the automatic nervous system activity and stimulates the circulatory, lymphatic and hormonal systems. Poor posture, joint problems, sprains, arthritis, sciatica, acute and chronic neck and back pain, sinusitis, and bronchitis are treatable with Shiatsu.

 

Boise Shiatsu Massage Therapist

If you are looking for a massage place near you, I offer deep tissue therapy using Shiatsu Massage. It may complement or substitute for an acupuncture treatment. No oils used. Wear comfortable loose clothing during treatment.

As a Shiatsu massage therapist in Boise, our techniques are rooted in traditional Chinese methods. Like acupuncture, the body has unseen energy pathways, or meridians, along which the body's energy flows.

As a shiatsu practitioner we know these energy pathways as well as the points (called tsuobos in Japanese). Our massage therapy gets the energy flowing smoothly once again.

Our shiatsu session lasts 75 minutes. Call 406-570-8792 for massage specials.

  • I vow to honor my ancestors my teachers and the lineage of Chinese Medicine that is being transmitted to me.

  • I vow to honor this gift of being called to service and I dedicate myself to remaining humble and honest with my gifts and abilities through all these endeavors.

Callie is amazing! Her knowledge of Chinese medicine is extensive and her presence is very calm and welcoming. I thoroughly enjoyed my acupuncture session and recommend her to anyone seeking an intuitive and knowledgeable therapist. I will be back!

I've been having acupuncture, chiropractic, massage and many other types of wholistic touch type therapies for years. I had my first acupuncture session with Callie a few days ago and found it one of the best I've ever received. I highly recommend her and I will definitely go back. A couple of days later now, I no longer have neck pain, I'm feeling much more balanced and my sleep has improved. Boise is lucky to have Callie.

Callie is an amazing acupuncturist! From the thorough intake to the amazing sessions, I really felt and experienced positive changes with my shoulder issues. The sessions are very relaxing and vitalistic, which is what I look for in a healer. I like working with someone who looks at helping facilitate healing within the body, and I really got that with Callie. I highly recommend her!

Callie is one of a kind. A true gem on your path to health. She helped to rebalance me in some incredible ways. I apologize for the TMI, but I don't know how else to express that I had some female issues. Didn't get my period in months. With Callie's guidance, I was flowing once again. That's not all she did for me either. I would not only recommend her, I will continue to see her for my health maintenance. See her, you won't regret it!

Callie is an amazingly gifted TCM practitioner. I have a sensitive system and am very particular when it comes to having anyone work with me. From her thorough intake process to her meticulous, compassionate process of treatment and her knowledge of elements and cures, Callie is by far one of the best I’ve ever been to in over 20 years. Boise is lucky to have her services!
