Jin Shin Jyutsu brings balance to the body's
energies, which promotes optimal health and well-being, and
facilitates our own profound healing capacity. It is a valuable complement
to conventional healing methods, inducing relaxation and reducing the
effects of stress.
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 disharmonize the complete
path of energy flow. Holding these energy locks in combination can
bring balance to mind, body, and spirit.
Learning Jin Shin Jyutsu engages one in self
study, self help. Through the process of "now know myself" we
recognize the wisdom of the body, and we learn to interpret the messages
provided and utilize them to restore balance.
Jin Shin Jyutsu can be applied as self-help and
also by a trained practitioner. A Jin Shin Jyutsu session
generally lasts about an hour. It does not involve massage, manipulation
of muscles, or use of drugs or substances. It is a gentle art, practiced
by placing the fingertips (over clothing) on designated safety energy
locks, to harmonize and restore the energy flow. This facilitates the
reduction of tension and stress which accumulate through normal daily
living.
For those of us addressing existing stress or health
disharmonies, or for those simply wishing to participate actively in
maintaining health, harmony and well-being, the Art of Jin Shin Jyutsu
is a simple and powerful tool, available to all!
