In 2003 the World Health Organization estimated that there are over 303 million people worldwide who suffer from migraines, and statistics show that those numbers are increasing.

In this full day workshop you will learn how to effectively use Shiatsu Therapy to treat clients who suffer from migraines with treatment protocols for both acute migraine pain and maintenance and preventive treatments. We will also discuss the pathology of migraines, causes and self-care techniques that practitioners can share with their clients. The Shiatsu techniques you’ll learn can be easily integrated with other modalities to provide your clients with a treatment that can alleviate pain and diminish the frequency of migraines.

Shiatsu is based on the comfortable application of pressure to specific points on the body. As pressure is adjusted to suit the needs of each client, Shiatsu can be used on anyone, regardless of their condition. It is used for relaxation, stress relief or as preventive care and is used to treat countless specific conditions.
