Seitai

Seitai (整体) is a form of bodywork and alternative medicine practice, originally developed as training tool within Health Education. It was developed in Japan by Haruchika Noguchi (1911–1976) in the mid-20th century. The kanji comprising the word are 整 sei, regulated, coordinated, in order, and 体 tai, "body, organism", therefore translated together as "the body in order".
