5th International Days of Shiatsu in Paris June 2010

The Fifth Paris Shiatsu Conference was held from June 4th through the 6th. Ikenaga Kiyoshi-sensei, the founder of the Canadian College of Shiatsu Therapy, was invited as an instructor and gave a lecture titled, "Shiatsu treatment for Sciatica". Ms. Lona Leveque and Mr. Guillaume Nogue, who are French students from the Canadian College of Shiatsu Therapy, participated in the conference as assistants of Ikenaga-sensei. Ms. Kanako Takahashi, Ms. Mayumi Koyama, and Mr. Toshinori Kotake, who are students from the school as well, also participated in this conference. We all hope that through such an opportunity, we will help grow the knowledge of shiatsu to the world. In addition, the growth of shiatsu will inspire more people to know the benefits of shiatsu.
