Shiatsu springs from the same ancient principles as acupuncture, supporting and strengthening the body’s natural ability to heal itself. It is experienced fully clothed as a whole body massage and is often described as ‘acupuncture without the needles’.

Using a combination of acupressure points, gentle stretching and holding, flowing movements and joint rotations, areas of tension, pain or weakness are given attention and the body brought back into balance by improving flexibility and circulation.

First and foremost: be aware of your prostate. Prostate cancer kills over 10,000 men in the UK every year because diagnosis comes too late. But it doesn’t need to be this way. Be aware of the symptoms and talk to your GP about your prostate health. The NHS prostate information page can be found here: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/prostate-problems/

Not all prostate problems are cancer. One of the more common is benign (non-cancerous) prostate hyperplasia (enlargement). Early intervention with herbs and supplements can support prostate health, help to prevent prostate enlargement and help relieve the urinary problems associated with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH).

Saw Palmetto (the seed of the palm tree) in particular, has been shown in studies to be especially effective. A report published in 2002 concluded that Saw Palmetto provided mild to moderate improvement in urinary symptoms such as frequent night time urination and problems with urine flow. The improvements were similar to those seen in men who took a prescription drug, with Saw Palmetto causing fewer and milder side effects.
