WORKSHOPS:
26. February until April
COMPLETE FOUNDATION COURSE SHIATSU with Corinna Melinkat

Shiatsu is a traditional Japanese bodywork therapy that is a perfect remedy against stress and tension. It is a type of massage that uses gentle hand and finger pressure along the body’s energy pathways called meridians. According to oriental medicine, our physical and emotional problems have their origin in imbalances in the meridians, where life energy circulates. Shiatsu harmonises this energetic flow, relaxes the body and calms the nervous system. In this balanced state, internal self healing resources can function effectively to restore body and mind and help with backpain and many other problems. During the treatment both the patient and the „giver“ feel completely relaxed and at the same time energized. Shiatsu is for any age! Removal of clothing is not required.

You will learn all techniques to give a good treatment to your family and friends in different positions (face down, up, side lying and sitting). We also practice Makko-Ho-exercises to improve our own energy level.

Please wear comfortable clothing. At the end of the course you will receive a internationally recognized certificate from the European Shiatsu School Spain.

CORINNA MELINKAT is an experienced certified Shiatsu-practitioner and Yoga teacher.
