Beyond Shiatsu with the Ohashiatsu® Method by Wataru Ohashi, Paul Deangelis (Editor), Kan Okano (Photographer) $ 19.95

The Ohashi Bodywork Book is the first to detail the methods of the world famous Ohashi Institute. Ohashiatsu® is a unique acupressure program that facilitates the exchange of energy between giver and receiver — and energizes both. Dramatically clear photographs illustrate entire body movements — not just acupressure points — to show exactly how this unique, rejuvenating interaction occurs. Other photographs show the most common mistakes in body position, postures that exhaust rather than energize. Visually sophisticated and elegantly designed, The Ohashi Bodywork Book will quickly become the bible for everyone seeking serious knowledge of healthy bodywork.
