The meaning of Shiatsu is actually “finger pressure”, and sometimes Chicago Massage Therapy refers to this massage as the finger press Massage.

The shiatsu practitioner applies pressure to specific points to promote energy distribution throughout the body and to correct disharmonies in the energetic components of the body.
