Our Services
At Sakura Shiatsu, we offer a range of traditional Japanese massage therapy techniques designed to promote relaxation, reduce tension, and improve overall well-being. Our services include:
Shiatsu Massage
Shiatsu is a traditional Oriental massage therapy technique that utilizes pressure points to increase energy flow through Meridian Flow Pathways. This technique is designed to break apart blocks that form through repetitive daily actions and tense muscles. Similar to acupuncture, shiatsu targets meridian points with finger pressure to restore balance and harmony to the body.
Deep Tissue Massage
This massage focuses on a specific set of muscles to improve recovery time for athletes. It relieves pain, prevents stiffness, and returns muscles back to their original state.
Hot Stone Massage
Increased blood flow is achieved through the use of hot stones, which dilate blood vessels, allowing for greater blood flow to the skin and muscles. This technique provides deeper relaxation and a sense of calm.
Foot Reflexology
This ancient practice is based on the belief that the entire body is connected via the nervous system and every part of the foot is connected to another part of the body. The goal of this treatment is to clear pathways of energy flow, return the body to its original state, and increase the immune response.
Bamboo Fusion Massage
This innovative technique combines Swedish massage with heated bamboo rollers. The therapist incorporates heated bamboo to roll and knead muscles, allowing the heat to relax muscles as it kneads and rolls.
