Shiatsu is a profoundly effective bodywork rooted in Chinese Medicine, developed in Japan and brought to the West, becoming increasingly popular since the 1970's. Shiatsu technique involves stretching, joint mobilisation and applying weight through the palms, thumbs, (knees, feet, and forearms) into various parts of the recipient's body. This encourages greater harmony of Ki (energy), circulation, flexibility and postural integrity. Many of the techniques are applied to the same system of energy channels (meridians) and acupressure points as used in acupuncture. Shiatsu has proven to help with relaxation, general health and a wide range of physical and emotional problems.

Reconnecting Through Shiatsu

Shiatsu is rooted in connection — attentive touch, thoughtful presence, and respect for the body’s own capacity for balance. These principles continue to guide the Shiatsu Society Ireland in its work supporting practitioners and promoting high standards of practice.

While we have been quieter in this space for a time, the Society’s work has continued. As we begin sharing here again, we see this as an opportunity to reconnect — with our community, with the wider public, and with the values that underpin Shiatsu practice.

Through this channel, we’ll be sharing updates, reflections, and information relevant to Shiatsu in Ireland. We look forward to staying connected and continuing the conversation.

Our Story

Shiatsu is a profoundly effective bodywork rooted in Chinese Medicine, developed in Japan and brought to the West, becoming increasingly popular since the 1970's. Shiatsu technique involves stretching, joint mobilisation and applying weight through the palms, thumbs, (knees, feet, and forearms) into various parts of the recipient's body. This encourages greater harmony of Ki (energy), circulation, flexibility and postural integrity. Many of the techniques are applied to the same system of energy channels (meridians) and acupressure points as used in acupuncture.

Shiatsu has been seen to help people to relax, connect with their body, improve overall health and wellbeing, deal with medical issues and generally help to get balance back emotionally, physically and psychologically. We use touch, stretching, holding, listening, acupoints, meridians, relaxation to help the practice.
