Shiatsu Massage in Porto
Shiatsu is a Japanese manual therapy that applies pressure with thumbs, palms and elbows along the body's meridians — the same energy channels used in traditional Chinese medicine. Performed without oils and in comfortable clothing, Shiatsu works deeply on the muscles and nervous system, releasing accumulated tension and restoring the body's natural capacity for self-regulation.
At Kaapora, every Shiatsu session begins with a conversation about your physical and emotional state. Pressure is adjusted to your body — firm where there is tension, gentle where there is sensitivity — in a slow, continuous rhythm that induces deep relaxation.
Benefits
- Relief of muscle tension in the neck, shoulders and back

How the session works
The session lasts 60 minutes and takes place on a futon, wearing light, comfortable clothing. No oil is applied. Pressure is always communicated and adjusted with you during the session.
Who it's for
Recommended for anyone with chronic tension, stress, fatigue, tension headaches, or simply seeking a deep pause from the daily rhythm.
