Jin Shin Do Bodymind Acupressure is s synthesis of:
~ Traditional Japanese Finger Pressure
~ Classical Chinese Five Element Acupuncture Theory
~ Reichian Segmental Theory
~ Taoist Philosophy
~ Qigong Exercises & Breathing
~ Western Psychotherapy
Acupressure is a 5000 year old system of healing which uses finger pressure to integrate the body, mind and spirit. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine Theory there is a Life Force called Qi energy. This bio-energy is scientifically measurable. Qi flows through our body in 12 main channels like an interconnected system of rivers. These channels are called "meridians"
When the energy in our meridians is flowing smoothly we feel balanced and healthy. When certain points are congested, some meridians are blocked and we experience pain, sickness and /or emotional distress. Holding acupressure points frees blocked energy like removing debris in a river. This alleviates the tension and discomfort and the body begins to heal itself.
A example of an imbalance of the HEART MERIDIAN is accompanied by depression and anxiety. When the HEART MERIDIAN is flowing freely, we are able to experience happiness, self-confidence, and compassion.
What you can expect from a session of acupressure is a feeling of deep relaxation, and alternative to pain killers and other drugs, the ability to help your body heal itself, a confidential space and supportive assistance to process emotional confusion.
Introductory Classes of Acupressure are starting in January in the Wellness Center
