Shiatsu For Horses
with
Nick Goody, Shiatsu
for Horses Practitioner
 |
Shiatsu is a traditional
Japanese bodywork therapy based on pressure and stretches and in this set of
newsletters, we will feature specific meridians (the same lines that
acupuncture would use, except with Shiatsu you use your thumbs and fingers) and
explain how you can stimulate various parts of the body. Please note that
shiatsu is not a replacement treatment to veterinary care. Your vet is your
first port of call and should always be consulted first if you have any doubts
about your horse's health. |
In Japanese shi means “finger” and
atsu means “pressure”. Literally translated, Shiatsu means finger
pressure - a pressure that gently stimulates the body’s natural healing
ability.
In Shiatsu there are twelve meridians each of
which can have a powerful effect on balancing your horse’s health.
The
Horses Back and the Bladder Meridian.
The
Kidney Meridian
The
Lung Meridian
The
Stomach Meridian
