The Shiatsu School of Vermont offers Shiatsu Certification Training and Professional Shiatsu Services. Shiatsu is a touch-based therapy from Japan that that uses the same energy points and lines as acupuncture. Shiatsu Therapy helps a person’s immune system to improve stress-related conditions including chronic back pain and sciatica, anxiety, depression, Lyme disease-related pain, headaches, sleep disturbances and old injuries. One-Year Certification Programs begin each September. Shiatsu services are available by appointment, and Shiatsu Community Clinics take place every Wednesday from 2-5pm (30-minute sessions for $20).
