We are fond of getting a massage. Hubby and I used to go to Victoria Plaza mall to get a massage but now we transferred to NCCC mall since it is closer, at least, to home. We go there every couple of weeks to de-stress and just relax. Shiatsu is a finger pressure massage technique where the therapist applies pressure with his thumbs, finger, and palms to specific areas of the client’s body. The therapist use different massage techniques like tapping, squeezing, rubbing, and applied pressure are applied along the meridians to unblock energy blockages.

If I’m unable to get a massage, I use a Shiatsu Self Massage guide that I found in the internet last year. You can do it even when you’re just sitting in front of the PC. It helps and it feels good.
