Reasons for the choice of theme

Chosen as the theme for this work Shiatsu as part of my life and this is an opportunity to show what I do and how I do. In addition, to the testimony of the person to see immediate results (beneficial) and the medium term this type of therapy, which works as a preventive measure for a number of situations that we face and that often prevent us from enjoying a healthy living.

It was decided that in recent years devoted to the study applied the human body, shortly after a trip (300km), by bike. In achieving this speed and lack of roads to run out of the 170 horsepower Suzuki GSXR 1100-R, I chose a cruising speed of around 250km. Immediately felt a strange behavior in the vehicle and realized I was losing control of the machine. In briefly passed me many thoughts that were not easily replaced by more pleasant when you have already achieved stop. As I do not believe in coincidences, that I believe that things do not happen by chance, that this justified the experienced reflection on my life as a whole.

Concludes the training by the end of the year. At that moment I realized that was the need to diversify and deepen my knowledge in this area. He then came the opportunity to attend the course in Shiatsu.

(Pressure with your fingers and rubbing with the palms of hands). This experience has reinforced the feedback I have received from people who know this therapy.
For this reason my technique is suited to the needs of people: Start the session with slides of Chinese massage "Amma," I follow the path of the meridian of Governor vessels, bladder and small intestine and shoulders and glutes in posterior (back) in Previous region and in this specific case of golfers work to neck, chest, arms and hands. Legs working the meridian of the gallbladder, the twins run stretching and feet.
