The only thing is to sell the benifits not what shiatsu is. What are the clients hot buttons. If you can touch them emotionally shiatsu is a easy sell. I'm lucky i live in Hawaii there are a lot of Japanese here so the local people know about the benifits of shiatsu. My only problem here is the old stereo type of PAIN. Like acupuncture fear of needles and pain. Remember shiatsu is not a massage! It's traditional oriental medicine like acupuncture. Not a rub and feel good massage. When your through with a massage you still have the problem. With shiatsu you helping the body heal itself. like all medicine. The body (sub concious) does the work. Shiatsu therapist aid in helping it.
best of luck
Jon
