Shiatsu

Shiatsu is a complementary therapy recently introduced at CancerWise.  Shiatsu offers a number of possible benefits such as

  • Reduction of side-effects associated with treatment
  • Restoration of energy levels
  • Easing of stress and tension and improvement in sleep
  • Reduced feelings of anxiety
  • Aiding correct posture and breathing
  • Stimulation of the immune system
  • Improvement in circulation
  • Enhanced feelings of well-being

Traditionally Shiatsu takes place on a futon on the floor.  However, it can equally take place on a couch or in a chair for those less mobile.  The clients wears loose, comfortable clothing.

This is a very relaxing therapy and one that has proved very popular at CancerWise.
