1. About Shiatsu massage
Shiatsu is a form of body massage which was originally developed in Japan around 100 years ago. It is
based on ideas anchored in traditional Chinese medicine, in particular the meridian system, i.e. the paths in
the human body along which energy is conveyed.
The aim of any Shiatsu massage is to promote the physical, emotional and mental wellbeing of the person
being treated. To do this, energy blocks and bottlenecks in the meridians need to be dissolved and the self-
regulating ability of the body needs to be stimulated.
Shiatsu therapists achieve this by exercising pressure in flowing movements along the meridians. Although
Shiatsu can be literally translated as "finger pressure", practitioners also use the heels of their hands, their
elbows and knees as well as their fingers. In the process, the therapist will use his or her full body weight in
order to generate the required pressure.
2. Getting to know your appliance
The massage heads in your Shiatsu massager imitate the pressure and kneading movements of a Shiatsu
massage. This device with its moving massage heads provides a powerful and intense deep massage for the
whole back. You have to place the Shiatsu seat cover on a suitable seat pad for this purpose.
The device is only for private use and is not intended for medical or commercial purposes.
3. Proper use
This device is solely intended for massaging the backs of human beings. It cannot replace medical treatment.
