THE MERIDIANS
Meridians are a network of channels within the body, which carry chi (commonly perceived as "life force" energy). These channels connect together much like a map of the London underground. Meridians have associations with internal organs (i.e., stomach, lung etc) along each meridian are acupressure points which all have their own associations (there are points that are helpful for various conditions such as laminitis, colic, back pain, bladder problems etc).

Blockages in the meridian can cause a number of issues making areas sore and tense and can be responsible for changes in health and personality. In Shiatsu we work with both the energy flow in the meridian and also the acupressure points on those meridians to restore balance.
