Shiatsu Anma Therapy Program
Massage CE Program
In this home study course, you will learn the art and practice of a specific style of clinical Shiatsu called Shiatsu Anma. Based on both the theory of acupressure energetics originating from Chinese medicine and massage techniques of Japanese origin, Shiatsu Anma Therapy addresses illnesses and painful conditions in the body stemming from blockages in the flow of energy, or chi, within the acupuncture meridian (channel) system.
You will learn how to assess the body's energy channel system with regard to deficiency and excessive states and apply appropriate techniques that restore the balance of chi within the body. As the flow of chi is re-established in the channel system, pain is relieved and the healing process of the body begins.
The manual that accompanies the DVD presentation in this instructional program contains pertinent information with regard to the theory, application, and specific treatment techniques and sequences for several painful conditions. A review of Yin/Yang theory and Meridians is included both in the video and the manual to help familiarize you with the fundamentals of this practice. A laminated Acupuncture Chart that depicts the meridians as well as specific points on the channels is included as a useful reference when working with the various channels and points. An additional text accompanies this program as supplemental material for your reference in learning and practicing the art of Shiatsu. Use this reference to broaden and deepen your practice of Shiatsu Anma Therapy.

Testimonials
This is a great course for anyone interested in shiatsu or Chinese philosophy. The demonstrations were wonderful and done so that this therapy can very easily be incorporated into a massage treatment.- M. Green, LMT
There are no trick questions. All the answers are clearly found in the text. Both the books and the DVD are excellent sources and will refer to them as I continue to learn and practice each technique. I know this course is just the beginning, and that it will take many more hours of continuous practice to get the feel of deficient and excessive Qi in the meridians. I do believe this course is worth every bit I paid and would recommend it to others.- M. Howard, NCTMB, ABMP
I love this course and I really learned a lot about Shiatsu. Now I can incorporate this technique when doing massage. This is really very helpful and the video is excellent.- J. H. Bansil, CMT
I have studied Chinese medicine in respect to bodywork for a few years now. This course exceeded my expectations of what a home study course could provide. Thank you!- C. Kaull, LMT, NCTMB
A wealth of information to absorb.- N. Turner, LMT, NCTMB
