My name is Jorge Uehara and I developed the Zenkai Shiatsu Method.

In the Zenkai Shiatsu Method, we do not incorporate “meridians” or “tsubos” from traditional shiatsu. Instead, we follow the anatomy and physiology of the body, using imaginary lines to dissolve muscular tension and improve blood circulation, working mainly along the spinal column, from which all the body’s nerves originate. This also promotes the rebalancing of the autonomic nervous system and vital energy (Qi).

Our main differential is a firm, strong and precise touch, yet with great lightness. We use the body swing and the strength of the thumbs so that the pressure penetrate deeply into the tissues, applying less body weight, making the touch lighter and more efficient, and preserving the therapist’s energy.

USE BIOMECHANICS TO YOUR ADVANTAGE! LESS EFFORT, MORE EFFICIENCY.

In this method, shiatsu can be applied in a more pleasant way, breaking the taboo that shiatsu is painful.

Besides that, it can be partially combined with other therapies, making a “therapy mix”!

My Background

I’m acupuncturist and massage therapist with over 30 years of professional practice, with experience in Japan and China.

I am the founder of Zenkai Shiatsu, a company in the massage field stablished in the year 2000.

I manage four massage centers with a team of more than 50 massage therapists, performing around 2,200 sessions per month — the greatest proof of the success of Zenkai Shiatsu Method.

I was a medalist in the massage championship held in Brazil, and also participated as a judge and competitor in Mexico, Serbia, Japan, Denmark and Argentina. In 2025, I organized the championship in Brazil.

In this course, I share with you my experience and knowledge accumulated over the years in this area of massage.
