Shiatsu Teorie a praxe – Beresford-Cooke Carola (2016)

We bring you the Czech translation of the third, expanded edition of one of the best books on shiatsu ever, in which the author introduces you to the theory of zen-shiatsu, the theory of the five elements, and traditional Chinese medicine in a clear and understandable way. This comprehensive book will help you understand wisdom that is thousands of years old and teach you how to practically apply it in shiatsu. The author complements the detailed description of individual techniques and procedures for treating meridians with numerous examples from her long-standing practice. The extensive appendix, which focuses on the most common ailments and how to approach them holistically, is also practically oriented. Although the book is primarily intended for shiatsu students and practitioners, it will also serve well for clients who find relief in shiatsu and want to learn more. This book will touch you while reading, much like an experienced shiatsu practitioner can. Carola has written in an expert yet engaging manner what a practitioner should learn in shiatsu school and what a client takes away from each treatment. The book is a true blessing and gift for those interested in other fields of complementary medicine and for doctors incorporating a holistic approach into their practice.
