I've been reading about the benefits of a shiatsu massage, but what is the difference between a shiatsu and a lomi-lomi massage?

A lomi-lomi massage is a type of bodywork that involves long, flowing strokes along the body. Shiatsu is a form of acupressure that uses finger pressure on specific points in the body to help relieve pain and tension. Shiatsu focuses more on the meridians and energy pathways than lomi-lomi does.
