This ancient manual therapy focuses on balancing the body's energy through the application of thumb and hand pressure, providing an immediate sense of relief and promoting self-healing processes.

Maria Paparazzo, the skilled practitioner who founded the studio, views Shiatsu as a dynamic process of personal evolution.
