Shiatsu Kompaktkurs

One of the unique offerings is the Shiatsu Kompaktkurs, a compact course that introduces participants to the principles and practices of Shiatsu. Shiatsu is a form of bodywork that uses gentle touch to promote relaxation and well-being. The course, led by experienced instructors, covers basic techniques and sequences for a full-body treatment. It is embedded in exercises for body awareness and is suitable for beginners. However, individuals with knee problems are advised to consider their participation carefully due to the floor-based nature of the practice.

Requirements and Recommendations for Participation

• Participants are recommended to wear comfortable, long-sleeved, and long-legged clothing.
• Bringing fresh socks, a small pillow, and a blanket is advised for comfort during the sessions.
• It is preferable for participants to bring their own mat, and if using the institution's mats, a large towel is required.
