Our Journey: Formed by Purpose and Passion
Thusare Talking Hands was established as a core social business under the non-profit organization APCAS (founded in 2008), which has long committed to fostering peace, capability, and sustainability. Recognizing the untapped potential of individuals with disabilities in Sri Lanka, we launched a dedicated vocational training program focused on Japanese Shiatsu therapy and wellness.
Over the years, what started as an empowerment initiative has grown into a highly regarded professional salon network, including branches in Colombo and surrounding areas. We have trained numerous visually impaired individuals, transforming lives by turning incredible tactile sensitivity into a respected professional skill. Today, we continue to bridge communities, promote social inclusion, and deliver world-class therapeutic care from the heart of Sri Lanka.

Experience the authentic art of Japanese Shiatsu, a holistic bodywork designed to unlock your body's natural healing power. By targeting key energy pathways, our therapy deeply relieves stiffness, improves circulation, and reduces stress. Every session provides long-lasting physical relief and complete mental rejuvenation.

Our exceptional services are delivered exclusively by certified, visually impaired therapists. Having completed rigorous professional training, they possess an incredibly developed and intuitive sense of touch. They can effortlessly read muscle tension and locate hidden discomfort, ensuring a highly precise and personalized treatment.

As a proud social business backed by NPO APCAS, we transform lives through professional empowerment. Your wellness journey directly funds high-standard vocational training and creates sustainable, dignified employment for individuals with visual impairments in Sri Lanka, fostering a more inclusive and supportive community.
