Jin
Shin Jyutsu employs twenty-six "safety energy locks"
along energy pathways that feed life into our bodies. When
one or more of the paths becomes blocked, the resulting
stagnation can disrupt the local area and eventually disharmonise
the complete path of energy flow. Holding these energy locks
in combination can bring balance to mind, body, and spirit. Top
How
does Jin Shin Jyutsu work?
Jin Shin Jyutsu employs twenty-six safety
energy locks along a network of energetic pathways that nourish
life within the body. When one or more of these safety energy
locks become blocked, a local disruption can occur, eventually
resulting in disharmony of the energetic pathway completely.
Application of the Art of Jin Shin Jyutsu® (light pressure
applied with the fingertips to the safety energy locks) brings
balance, releases deep tension, and restores harmonious flow
along the energetic pathways.
Jin Shin Jyutsu is a natural art which facilitates the restoration
of an individual's physical, mental, emotional and spiritual
balance. Literally translated, it means, "Art of the
Creator through compassionate and knowing man." This
simple, yet incredibly powerful art was rediscovered in Japan
in the beginning of the twentieth century by Jiro Murai, and
brought to the west by Mary Burmeister in the 1950s. Top
How
long is a session and what does it involve?
A Jin Shin Jyutsu session generally
lasts an hour, and does not involve massage or use of substances.
It is a gentle, yet powerful art, practiced by placing fingertips
(over clothing) onto the safety energy locks in specific
combination.
A Jin Shin session begins with listening
to the pulse, which reveals to the practitioner information
about the current flow of energy and state of being of the
client. It indicates where he or she needs help. Unlike
western medicine, the emphasis is not on diagnosing, but
on harmonizing. All disease begins with blockages of energy,
and the pulse shows the practitioner the specific energy
points that need to be held to restore the harmonious flow,
without creating additional stress in the client's mind
about the condition.
The remaining treatment
consists of gently holding points in various combinations
until complete harmony of energy and pulsation is established.
There is no pain or physical manipulation. The practitioner
uses his/her hands and "jumper cables" the energy
in order to recharge the "battery of life", enabling
universal energy to flow through the client's body and reawaken
its natural healing ability. Top
How
is Jin Shin Jyutsu carried out?
A treatment lasts approximately
an hour. The acupressure points (or “Safety Energy
Locks”) are held over clothing in a series of flows
that open energy pathways. Top |
