ABOUT THE BOOK
On-site massage has exploded in popularity since the 1980s, with therapists performing massages in shopping centers, airports, and workplaces. This comprehensive manual details a 20-minute sequence, developed from traditional Anma and Shiatsu techniques, that enables the practitioner to move around the client’s body in a flowing and highly effective way. With 150 color photographs and 20 color illustrations, the guide explains meridians and acupressure points, and offers advice on ethical considerations and tips for preparing the client for massage.
"I am an acupuncturist who was looking to do some chair massage, which was not an area covered during my schooling. I have acquired a lot of massage books, but this one stands out. It gives a suggested routine that is simple and logically arranged. It was easy to use the suggested routine as a springboard for a more customized session. The only caveat is that you need to be familiar with basic massage techniques to understand what is going on. So in that respect it really isn't a book for a lay person, it is more for a beginning professional."
