Watsu and its associated techniques were developed in the early 1980s by Harold Dull, director of the Harbin School of Shiatsu and Massage, in California. Watsu is an aquatic massage therapy that incorporates the principles of Zen Shiatsu and adapts them for effective use in warm water. It combines elements of massage, joint mobilization, shiatsu, muscle stretching and dance in warm water to correct ailments and promote healing. The name Watsu is derived from an amalgamation of the terms ‘Water’ and ‘Shiatsu’.
