Shiatsu School and Professionals

Within this category, you will find futons with different characteristics depending on the purpose for which they were designed. The thickness in particular, can vary from 3 to 11 cm. Let's see together what is the best use for each of the products in the catalog.

Traditional Futons for Shiatsu: If you need to create a permanent Shiatsu area, the ideal solution is the 11 cm thick futon, resting on the tatami mats. A higher height is not recommended, because you would risk sinking too much. The tatami on the one hand creates the perfect Zen atmosphere, on the other hand isolates from the floor and offers a base support rigid and yielding at the same time. If it is not possible to use tatami mats, another solution is to put the futon on a carpet. The ideal size is at least one and a half squares, this allows the operator to remain at the side of the customer without being outside the futon.

Portable Futons for Shiatsu: A portable futon is extremely useful if you often take classes, if you have chosen to work at home, or if you simply don't have a studio with the space to create a fixed island. The best rolling futon is the Bag-Futon, with its 6 cm thickness offers a good compromise between comfort and lightness, all at a fairly low price. If instead you want the top for this category, look at the professional transportable futon in coconut and cotton. This is a mattress divided into folding panels, easy to carry thanks to its low weight and practical fabric case. For added comfort, you can choose to add one or two cotton flaps.

You can also use thinner futons for other types of massage : q6/8 cm ones if you want to create a permanent massage area, and 3 cm ones if you're looking for a portable product to use occasionally.
