Seated Acupressure Massage or On-Site Massage, is a combination of the ancient East Asian massage arts of ANMA and Shiatsu. It is a meridian based therapy in which thumb, finger elbow and knuckle pressure are used over many of the acupressure points on the 12 major meridians . This technique helps to stimulate and balance the flow of energy throughout the body. In turn this stimulates the circulatory, muscular, nervous, immune and lymphatic systems and promotes the release of endorphins and important mood regulating transmitters, leaving the recipient feeling good in a relaxed but energised way.

The client, fully dressed, sits facing forward in an ergonomically designed massage chair. As the client relaxes and rests their chin and forehead on a thickly padded platform designed for the purpose, the therapist uses their hands and fingers to apply pressure to the acupressure points on the client’s head, neck, shoulders, upper arms and spine. The therapist uses a specific sequence of movements which takes about twenty minutes from start to finish, and leaves the client feeling relaxed, refreshed and energised.

Seated acupressure massage is excellent for relieving stress and tension and encouraging knotted, tight muscles to loosen up. It helps with backache, repetitive strain injury, asthma, headaches, migraines, toothache, fatigue, sinus problems, menstrual pain, digestive problems, eyestrain, anxiety, irritability and insomnia.
