Seated acupressure bodywork is a sequence developed from traditional Oriental Anma and shiatsu style massage techniques to improve health, energy flow, and reduce tension. Acupressure points are located throughout the body on meridian lines, and are stimulated using finger and elbow pressure with the addition of kneading, percussion, mobilization, and stretching. This will balance the flow of energy and stimulate the muscular, nervous, lymphatic, immune, and circulatory systems, leaving the client relaxed yet energized. This practical handbook takes the reader through the techniques involved.
This 20-minute treatment can be offered ‘on-site’ at events, airports, in the workplace, or from private clinics.
Andrew Parfitt trained with the Academy of On-site Massage, and now runs his own school in the UK.
