bodywork therapy, a “Japanese physiotherapy” that
literally means
finger (shi) pressure (atsu). It works the
entire body through stretching, massage, gentle joint manipulation, and
pressure techniques to balance the energy of the body.
What is involved in a treatment?
Case history: this is taken on the first visit and involves various questions about your horse such as health, appetite, injuries, work, etc…This is helping to give important background information to know the horse better.
The treatment is next and will last anything up to one hour depending on each case. Peace and quietness are a great help to work on the horse as well as some space.
Following the treatment I can show the owner some techniques to be done on their horse and that will help in between sessions.
Rest is also important after the treatment, at least the day off and if possible the next one.
Shiatsu is not a “quick fix”, occasionally a situation is resolved after one session, but three sessions are more usual and a longer term commitment is better to achieve lasting results. [Top of Page]
