GODAI
Health can only exist when there is a balance between our physical (musculo-skeletal system), Emotional (Mind), Chemical (nutritional intake and excretion, Electrical (Energy/Ki/Qi Life force) and our interaction with our Environment. This is called the GODAI
In Amatsu it is important to balance the godai of the person rather than the condition which is a manifestation of the person's loss of balance
Amatsu is a Holistic Japanese medicine that evolved over 5000 years and is known in Japan as Japanese physiotherapy. Influenced by Chinese, Korean and other Asian philosophies and medical approached, Amatsu medicine has evolved and has been available in the West since 1981.

YOUR LIFESTLYE HAS AN IMPACT ON YOUR BODY
In order to cope with these impacts, your body will heal itself as well as it can to continue functioning. However, it will then adapt by realigning itself to protect weak areas which will result in compensatory behaviour and eventually dysfunction and pain.
Amatsu works to unravel these adaption’s and get to the root of the problem and allow your body to self-heal .

Please wear loose-fitting clothes for Amatsu.
