



In 1912, a young boy at age 7, made history by
helping cure his mother of an illness through
massage
His name is Tokujiro Namikoshi
His thirst for knowledge and desire to share it
with others led him into developing what we now
know as Namikoshi Shiatsu
He founded the Japan Shiatsu College in
Tokyo, Japan
5






Shiatsu literally means “finger” (shi), “pressure”
(atsu)
Namikoshi Shiatsu is the only officially
recognized massage modality in Japan
Namikoshi Shiatsu is a highly disciplined
massage modality that has to be learned both
through hands and the heart

Tatami (floor) massage- more advanced massage
procedure
Bed massage- improvised massage for spa
setting
Chair massage- massage for busy people &
families

Konnichiwa- hello
Sumimasen- excuse me
Moochido- please repeat
Sensie- teacher
Gakusei- student
Arigatoo guzaimasu- thank you very much
Hai- yes!
Gambatte kudasai- Keep it up! Give your best!



HEART – the intention must go beyond self
MIND- the mind must be willing to learn new
things
BODY- the body must be physically sound

9






Sensei Tokujiro loves to admonish, “shiatsu ne
haha no kokoro” (shiatsu must from a mother’s
heart)
The key motive for learning shiatsu must be to be
able to share it with others.
Otherwise shiatsu sessions would simply be
burdensome
10






As often heard, “no two object occupies the
same space”, likewise any Namikoshi shiatsu
student must learn to unlearn
Old information must be out so new information
can freely dwell
An empty mind is a fertile ground for learning

11






Namikoshi shiatsu massage treatment requires
enough amount of physical energy
The student must be willing to give extra effort
to internalize the whole learning process
Only a physically fit body could sustain learning
and giving shiatsu massage

12







Hand techniques- proven method on how to
apply the pressure w/o causing discomfort on the
fingers
Body mechanics- procedures on how to give
maximum benefit w/o causing injury
Breathing exercises/Timing- making the most of
the treatment
Shiatsu points- guide points based on the
Namikoshi concept
13

Palm on Palm
14

Seiza position
Partial kneeling position
Upright kneeling position
Body-weight technique

15




Breathing Discipline- To sustain the whole
massage procedure, the therapist must practice
constant, deep breathing
Timing Discipline-Timing in Namikoshi Shiatsu is
essential because it enhances the healing &
relaxing effects of the massage. The 3-5x2second Rule must be carefully observed.

16






There are a total of 652 shiatsu points to
manipulate in a complete Namikoshi Shiatsu
(Tatami mat) session
Easy memorization through clustering of shiatsu
points
Important reminder: don’t be overly particular of
the shiatsu points
17
Module 1- Introduction
Module 2- Neck & Back
Module 3- Legs (prone)
Module 4-Legs (supine)
Module 5- Arms (supine)
Module 6- Chest, Head & Face
Module 7-Stomach
18






The sensei would first make a complete
Namikoshi shiatsu demo in the class
After which, everyone is expected perform the
massage procedures on a module per module
basis
Note: At the end of the class, there would be a
written and practical evaluation to be conducted
to help assess student performance
19







Practice makes perfect
Memorize the shiatsu points by clusters
Observe deep breathing at all times
If you commit an error, never stop.
Concentrate in what you are doing.
Give your best
