Shiatsu translation means Shi-pressure at the fingertips, so only the name matches Shiatsu 😊. Shiatsu is pressure and its grounding is the touch because in order to put pressure on something we must first get in touch with this and there is a spell in Shiatsu because contact is the most important tool of this skill. The quality of touch-to-body pressure and listening to how the body responds to that touch is the basic communication in shiatsu treatment. The pressure follows us from conception, in the womb the baby is exposed to the pressure of the 9th amniotic fluid that exerts pressure on each part of her body. We can conclude that the primal sensation of the human being is pressure, which gives the safety, the warmth during the growth and development of the baby, up to the moment of the mother's uterus. We are all exposed to the pressure of the atmosphere and to various other pressures through life. So Shiatsu is the most pressing pressure but not any pressure, it is neither romantic nor hostile pressure but pressure of support. Various techniques of Shiatsu treatment are also used, but the right spell is gained through the quality of support pressure that recreates the feeling of free growth and development as in the mother's womb.
