Watsu

Watsu is a therapeutic practice that combines gentle water-based massage, stretching, and deep relaxation techniques performed in warm, shallow water. Originating from Japanese shiatsu massage, it uses the support of water to facilitate movements that help release tension, improve flexibility, and promote emotional calm. The buoyancy and warmth of the water reduce stress on joints and muscles, making it beneficial for physical and mental well-being. Often done with a trained practitioner guiding the movement, Watsu creates a soothing environment that encourages relaxation and healing through the synergy of gentle touch and water therapy.
