Description

The Spirit of Shiatsu by Ivan Bel is a comprehensive guide to the ancient discipline of Shiatsu. This in-depth manual delves into the founding principles and philosophy of Shiatsu, exploring the technical, cultural, energetic, and conceptual aspects of the practice.

Split into three parts, the book draws on the author's two decades of international experience to examine the basic technical principles of Shiatsu, the complexities of the person-centred mind/body theory, and the philosophical elements of natural health. It also delves into concepts often excluded from practical Shiatsu resources, such as inner cleaning and purification, linking energy, and the impact of an individual's environment on their health.

Enriched with case studies and written in accessible language, this book is ideal for both Shiatsu students and practitioners. By exploring the 'why' as well as the 'how', it allows teachers and students to expand their knowledge and awareness for a more complete and flexible understanding of this ancient discipline.
