In Japanese, shiatsu means "finger pressure." The therapist applies rhythmic pressure to specific points of the body for shiatsu massage. These points are called "acupressure points" and are thought to be vital for the flow of the body’s vital energy, chi. These points can be blocked by shiatsu massage, according to proponents.
Sports massage was developed to aid athletes in their training, before, during and after sporting events. It may be used to improve flexibility or prevent injuries. It can also help with muscle strains after sports injuries.
Brain scans of people who received Thai massage treatments showed more relaxation and much lower anxiety than people who underwent physical therapy treatments for the same conditions.
