Because do a Shiatsu massage?
There are two main reasons to get a massage:

1. to relieve a pain or problem.
2. to maintain physical fitness.

A treatment two sessions can solve problems of back pain, circulation, insomnia, stress, joint.
In some cases — depending on the cause - a single massage can solve the problem, in some cases, the treatment should be part of the regular activities.

It is the case of problems such as arthritis and other chronic problems.

Osteoarthritis involves a wear of the cartilage that causes frequent grips of nerve - pain comes from those grips and not cartilage wear - so the massage should pose as a preventive activity.

At first should relax the muscle and allow the clamping is resolved. But once achieved the relief should be strengthening the muscles, so that bone structures are not at the mercy of gravity. A strong back holds the bones and keeps them in place, avoiding the grips.

A discipline of a weekly or bi-weekly massage can prevent headaches, while osteoarthritis is still.
A discipline of swimming produces the same effect. Both massage and swimming strengthen muscles without joint stress.
Swimming free joints of the effect of gravity, muscles are exercised without affecting the bones, the same applies to the massage.
