What is shiatsu?
Shiatsu is a Japanese massage technique. In earlier days it was mainly used within families. In this century Japanese therapists like Namikoshi and Masunaga, developed shiatsu into a professional therapy. They introduced shiatsu in Europe. At the moment shiatsu is becoming more and more known in Europe. That is not strange, because shiatsu is very effective and easy to apply.

Orthopedic shoes, pregnancy clothes and a healthy balanced diet, all these are signs of self care and nurturing that women have a tendency for during the time of their pregnancy. Women get away from massages while they are pregnant because they fear from doing damage to the fetus, of pre-birth or an abortion.
