About Anma
Anma originated from China over 4.000 years ago and was introduced to Japan about 1.300 years ago. Swedish massage and Shiatsu are among the many massage forms which grew out of this rich tradition. Anma is designed to work the muscle directly, deeply and often vigorously. For centuries, Anma has been very useful in the treatment of chronic muscle tension and many other problems. Nine basic hand manipulation techniques are often combined with pressure, vibration or jostling. The unique combination of this lively massage literally tricks the muscle from tension to relaxation.
It has been a great experience to study Anma techniques with Sensei James S. Mochizuki who has been introducing Anma, Japanese facial massage, and Zoku Shin Do (traditional East Asian foot massage) here in the US for the first time. Sensei James S. Mochizuki is also the seventh generation of traditional Japanese Bodyworkers. His grandmother is considered a National Treasure of Japan.
