What is Watsu?
Watsu is a form of water therapy, which can also be called hydrotherapy. It involves stretches, massages, and acupressure in thermal warm water. The term “watsu” comes from the words, “water” and “shiatsu.” Shiatsu is a type of traditional Japanese massage that uses acupressure to promote relaxation. In Japanese, shiatsu means “finger pressure.” Watsu was created by Harold Dull, a massage therapist, in 1980. Dull observed that it was easier for his clients’ muscles and tissues to relax in water. In turn, he found that shiatsu techniques were more effective when done in water.
Our Watsu therapy is used to alleviate pain and discomfort caused by a range of ailments. The idea is that the resistance of water soothes physical tension and encourages relaxation, which supports overall health.
