Long description
This is a comprehensive guide to the unique methods that have made the Ohashi Institute famous around the world; methods that have moved beyond traditional shiatsu to develop an approach to acupressure that is holistic rather than symptomatic, energizing rather than purely physical. Above all, these techniques are designed to foster a mutual exchange of energy through bodywork that enriches both the giver and the receiver. The book contains hundreds of photographs, which show whole body movements, not just pressure points. "Don't" boxes present undesirable postures and how to avoid them and fold-out meridian charts are included for quick reference.
