指压是日本的一种治疗形式,属于东方医学体系中的一部分。与针刺、草药、食疗、锻炼、太极、气功及中国推拿一样,其目的均是促进人体气的运行,消除郁滞。 指压疗法运用伸、转、压等方法,对经络穴位进行刺激,以激活人体能量,如内关穴常被用于治疗恶心、呕吐。英国指压协会(The shiatsu Society in the U. K. )是由对指压感兴趣的人士组成。学习指压的学生及其他有志者均可入会。通过理论考试、实践评估的指压师可在协会注册。目前,指压疗法的运用呈上升趋势,但对其效果仍缺乏对照研究。
Shiatsu is a form of treatment in Japan and is part of the Eastern Medicine System. Like acupuncture, herbal medicine, diet, exercise, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, and Chinese massage, its purpose is to promote the operation of body gas and eliminate stagnation. Shiatsu therapy uses stretch, rotation, pressure and other methods to stimulate meridians and acupoints to activate body energy. Neiguan points are often used to treat nausea and vomiting. The shiatsu Society in the U.K. is composed of people who are interested in acupressure. Students who learn shiatsu and other ambitions can join. Acupressure practitioners who pass theoretical examinations and practice assessments can register with the association. At present, the use of acupressure therapy is on the rise, but there is still no controlled study of its effect.
