Download SSI Membership Form

Originating in Japan, Shiatsu is a grounding and supportive energetic therapy that stimulates your body’s own healing powers. Shiatsu helps to restore your natural well-being, prevent illness and relieve many common ailments such as backache, digestive problems, menstrual problems, fatigue, mental and emotional stress.

Shiatsu uses thumb and palm pressure on your body’s energy channels and can help create a sense of harmony and balance in your body. Shiatsu is a deeply relaxing and energising experience.

The Shiatsu Society establishes and monitors the standards of professional practice. Registered practitioners carry the initials RPSSI and will have graduated from a lengthy training programme, usually 3 years. All registered members will have undertaken the Society's independent accreditation exam, are fully insured and are bound by the Society’s Code of Ethics.
