This paragraph, written by the founder of Aikido Master Ueshiba Morihei ("O-Sensei") summaries the very spiritual essence of Aikido practice. Aikido is a way of uniting, harmonizing and bonding with a possible hostile challenge in a form of a controlled attack by one or more attackers.
PAIN in oriental understanding is NOT a pathogen causing a health-related problem but simply “stagnation” in KI/Blood flow (or- body functioning). Pain is nothing but a STIMULUS created by the body when trouble is sensed, such as damaged tissue, that is delivered to the brain providing information about the characteristics of the problem and awakening a natural RECOVERY process. Thus, proving the mind is relaxed (parasympathetic state).
Shiatsu and Anma both aim to promote the natural healing process already existing in our body, whether it is for maintenance and well-being, helping to restore our body's stamina or specifically alleviating any health condition.

One of the most successful and recommended devices ever! Can be used in many ways and mostly works to disperses any intense concentrated pain or tension.
A core pressure and exercises device for any deep muscular area in the body like the back, neck, thighs etc. I find it very useful for releasing muscular tension in the spinal area and even in the abdominal area (still pressure).
Another great and simple device to realign the spinal area. Very good for relieving pains and aches due to an overly stressed back and neck while lying passively on it for a few minutes at a time. One can even sleep on it for the night due to its silicon based elastic material. Great for back/neck muscles spasm. I have tried and recommend it!
This incredibly simple device provides great acupressure stimulation to our feet, controlled by our body weight, that can relief a whole daily tension in just a few minutes! It has two groups of spikes and can fit any type of ache. Best used in standing.
Electric percussion massager from HOMEDICS brand. Used by professional such as Chiropractors etc. Very effective in releasing thick muscle cramps in minutes.
Plugs to a regular outlet and includes IR warming heat.
A very good manual neck massager that can reach the deepest neck tissues and relief neck stiffness within a few minutes. Care must be put in cases of medical issues or health complications involving over stimulation of the sympathetic nerve system.
A simple yet very effective manual device for massaging flat areas and also for deeper pressure holding it backwards (holding the legs and pressuring with the head) and working on the belly. Try laying down on it in supine position for back/hip pressure. can be used in many ways!
The best manual device for skull (head) massage! Can relax a stressful headache within a few minutes. Most recommended for computer/office workers!
Warming our achy and tired body areas is easily done, very affordable and safe with this Electric Heating Pad. Good for Muscle soreness/fatigue, or even for stomach soreness/fatigue (with pain). Lower back is great for general soreness/fatigue.
