Healing Shiatsu offers traditional Japanese Shiatsu massage and cupping therapy in San Francisco's Richmond District. Relieve tension, improve circulation, and restore balance with our experienced therapists.
Shiatsu is a traditional Japanese bodywork technique that applies rhythmic finger and palm pressure along the body's meridians (energy pathways) to restore the natural flow of Qi (life energy). Performed fully clothed under a blanket without oil or lotion, a Shiatsu session relieves muscle tension, improves circulation, and calms an overactive sympathetic nervous system. Unlike Swedish massage, which uses long flowing strokes with oil, Shiatsu focuses on sustained pressure at specific meridian points — making it especially effective for chronic neck, shoulder, and lower-back tension. At Healing Shiatsu in San Francisco's Outer Richmond District, sessions run 30 to 120 minutes, with prices starting at $65.
