About the Book
Shiatsu Anma Therapy, DoAnn's Short & Long Forms, outlines the history, principles and practice of Shiatsu-Anma and Shiatsu, and teaches both forms of this Oriental massage, otherwise known as Long Form and Short Form, which have been developed by Dr. Kaneko, a pioneer in the field with over forty years experience. Used as a course book at the Shiatsu Massage School of California, and in many schools in the U.S. and beyond, the book, like its author, is considered to be an authority on the subject, and useful for both lay and professional practitioners of Shiatsu-Anma. The book includes a step-by-step guide, with illustrations, on how to practice Shiatsu-Anma and Shiatsu.
About the Author
Dr. DoAnn T. Kaneko (L.Ac., PhD, O.M.D., Dipl.Ac. (NCCAOM), is a second-generation Shiatsu-Anma and Acupuncture master from Tokyo. Considered to be one of four main pioneers in the field of Shiatsu in the United States, he has developed both a Long-Form, or sixty-minute sequence, and a Short Form, or thirty-minute sequence. Both are highly effective tools for treating the mind and body, and are outlined in this book. Dr. Kaneko is the founder of the Shiatsu Massage School of California in Santa Monica, and the recipient of multiple lifetime achievement awards. He is one of two sons of the great healer Hideo Kaneko who did much to advance the practice of Oriental Medicine in his community in Tokyo. First trained by his parents, in 1979 Dr. Kaneko graduated from the Sorei scholar program of Toyo Acupuncture College (founded by Grand Master Sorei) in Tokyo. Dr. Kaneko is also a graduate of Japan’s Saint Paul Rikkyo University and the SAMRA University & Health Sciences.
