What is Japanese massage and how to operate it?
The main feature of Japanese massage is shiatsu, which uses the pressure of fingers (fingertips) or palms to adjust the balance of yin and yang. The word shiatsu comes from the Japanese words finger and pressure. Japanese traditional acupressure originated from ancient acupuncture in China, and more acupoints were used, which was closer to the meridian theory of traditional Chinese medicine. For example, acupoints are similar acupoints. Japanese massage attaches great importance to the strength of the dermis, epidermis and subcutaneous tissue, with delicate techniques and strong sense of rhythm. Instead of swinging, it pays attention to the application of pressing and rubbing techniques, especially the pressing technique, which must be forced to promote venous circulation and muscle strength, eliminate fatigue and increase muscle elasticity. In the process of massage, the intensity should be increased evenly and slowly, and the intensity should be between pleasure and slight pain.
