Shiatsu

Japanese word for "finger" (shi) "pressure" (atsu). Originated in China as part of the Traditional Chinese Medicine, and later, developed into a similar manual therapy in Japan. Similar to acupuncture, except that the hands are used to apply pressure to the specific points rather than needles, producing similar therapeutic results. The acu-points are located on specific energetic pathways, or meridians. Practitioner uses fingers, thumbs, palms, and elbows to access the acu-points and stimulate energy flow, to tonify deficiency of energy, and to disperse any excess.

Sports Massage
Sports massage was originally developed to help athletes prepare their bodies for optimal performance, recover after a big event, or function well during training. Sports massage emphasizes prevention and healing of injuries to the muscles and tendons. But you don't have to be in the Olympics to benefit from sports massage. Sports massage is also good for people with injuries, chronic pain or restricted range of motion. The massage therapist generally concentrates on a specific problem area.
