Written in Spanish, GUIA PRACTICA DE SHIATSU is a practical guide to the concept of Shiatsu. Shiatsu (shi = finger and atsu = pressure) is a technique for applying massages used in traditional oriental medicine. It aims to restore balance and physical energy in humans, while combating the energy imbalance in the body and mind. The illustrations inside depict how these various therapeutic massages are provided with the fingers, palms, elbows, or knees. The energy balance that is achieved runs through the body, soothing aches and pains in a smooth fashion, which causes a feeling of peace and tranquility, both physically and spiritually.
