Meridian Shiatsu Massage in Dubai
It has its roots in traditional Chinese medicine. The therapist will adjust and promote the flow of vital body energy, primarily using her fingers for acupressure on points that are connected to specific meridians.
The Meridian Shiatsu Massage will improve your health by activating these pressure points, calming the nervous system, and stimulating blood circulation. This massage helps reduce stress and pain, though in some cases, the pressure points may feel tender, which is considered as “good pain” as the body is healing. In addition, this massage can help with health problems such as depression, migraines, headaches, asthma, sciatica, and nerve problems.
Yinyang brings the best Shiatsu Massage in Dubai near you. It is a type of massage therapy that was primarily developed in Japan. Its name is derived from the Japanese term for “finger pressure”, as it involves applying pressure to specific points on the body, using one’s fingers.
While Shiatsu has roots in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), it is now commonly practised throughout the world. As in acupressure, practitioners of Shiatsu apply pressure to points on the body thought to be connected to certain meridians.
Why Shiatsu Massage Improves health?
By stimulating these points, such therapists aim to promote the flow of vital energy (also known as “chi”). According to the principles of TCM, blockages in the flow of chi can contribute to a wide range of illnesses.
Although scientists have yet to determine how or why shiatsu might improve health, it is theorised that the treatment may calm the sympathetic nervous system and—in turn—stimulate circulation, reduce stress, and soothe pain.
How is Shiatsu Massage Done? What to Expect?
When performing shiatsu, massage therapists use their fingers, thumbs, and/or palms in a continuous, rhythmic sequence. The finger pads are used to apply pressure throughout the treatment, and each point is typically held for two to eight seconds.
In some cases, the pressure points stimulated during shiatsu may feel tender. Those receiving shiatsu often describe this tenderness as “good pain”, but it’s important to alert your therapist if you feel discomfort or pain during your massage.
Your therapist can then adjust the pressure accordingly to make the massage more comfortable for you.

More on Shiatsu
Shiatsu is also said to increase energy, promote recovery from injuries, and stimulate the digestive system.
Research on the health effects of shiatsu is limited, but there is some evidence to suggest that it may offer certain benefits.
For example, a study published in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine in 2008 suggests that Shiatsu may help reduce stress and alleviate fatigue. In a survey of 633 people who had recently completed six months of Shiatsu treatments, the study’s authors also found that shiatsu may help ease symptoms associated with muscle and joint problems.
Some research also indicates that Shiatsu shows promise in the treatment of certain pain-causing conditions.
In a pilot study published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics in 2013, for instance, eight weeks of twice-weekly Shiatsu sessions appeared to reduce pain intensity and improve sleep quality in patients with fibromyalgia.
Furthermore, a small study published in the Journal of Holistic Nursing in 2001 found that shiatsu may help relieve pain and anxiety in people with lower back pain.
Shiatsu can help in improving general health by relieving stress, calming the nervous system, and stimulating the circulation and immune system. It is particularly effective for stress-related tension and illnesses, insomnia, back pain, headaches, and digestive upsets.
