SHIATSU

"Shiatsu sessions are received wearing comfortable clothing, preferably cotton, and take place on a futon (a mattress laid out on the floor) with qualified professionals who have at least three years of training. Treatments last between 60 and 80 minutes—a time when it often feels as though the clock stops, reconnecting us with our deepest self.

In Tenerife, Shiatsu is not widely known, although there are a few therapists who offer this service. Among them is Raffaele Lai from 'The House of Wellness,' who brings twenty-four years of experience and offers home-visit Shiatsu sessions.

"Imagine a home’s electrical system: electricity flows through copper wires, distributing power to every room. If any of these wires corrode, the electricity struggles to circulate, causing system failures—our lightbulb might flick on and off or not work at all.

According to Traditional Chinese and Japanese Medicine, the human body functions in much the same way. The house is our body, and the electrical grid consists of invisible meridians that transport energy throughout, ensuring everything works smoothly. If a meridian becomes 'corroded' by an unhealthy lifestyle—such as poor eating habits, alcohol, a sedentary lifestyle, depression, or unresolved emotional trauma—we can begin to experience physical health issues."

"Shiatsu (Shi = finger, Atsu = pressure: finger pressure) is a Japanese energy-rebalancing treatment that works through an evaluation of Qi (vital energy). Once a blocked meridian is identified, energy flow is restored by applying pressure with the thumb along the entire affected area and, when necessary, to other meridians and parts of the body. Shiatsu is a great healing art that works to improve or even resolve certain ailments, but above all, it excels as a preventive treatment. Generally, five to ten sessions are needed to see results, depending on the issue; as a preventive measure, there is no limit, since receiving a treatment is deeply pleasant and relaxing."
