Watsu® is a unique aquatic therapy performed in a warm pool, blending massage, shiatsu, and QiGong. The therapist gently stretches, massages, and moves you through the water, creating a sensation similar to floating in a tank—with the added benefit of therapeutic touch. 

The support of the water eliminates the weight-bearing stress of gravity, allowing the body to move freely and without strain. This creates an ideal environment for enhancing flexibility, improving functional mobility, and relieving tension throughout the body.

Why Watsu?


Why Watsu?


With your eyes closed and ears submerged, you drift into a deeply relaxed, meditative state where the body and nervous system can release stored tension, pain, and emotional stress. Watsu is like being held and moved in a gentle rhythm that reconnects you to your inner flow.
