Shiatsu massage works the whole body, but your therapist may focus on areas of your body that need extra attention. During the massage, your therapist will use their hands, palms, and thumbs to massage certain points of your body. Pulsing or rhythmic pressure is used. You can be fully clothed during this massage. Physical therapy, which includes myotherapy, is the technique of massaging or stroking a person’s tendons and other soft tissues to boost their fitness or wellness. It’s a sort of manual therapy that involves holding, moving, and pressing the muscles, tendons, vertebrae, and organs.
