What is Jin Shin Do?

 

“Jin Shin Do” means “The Way of the Compassionate Spirit.” Jin Shin Do® is the use of gentle yet deep finger pressure on specific acu-points and verbal Body Focusing techniques, to help release "armoring" or chronic tension, balance the "Qi" or energy, and improve vitality. We use this methos in conjunction wtih Reiki, Aroma Therapyand Sound therapy to help relieve stress- and trauma-related problems for the entire body.

A unique synthesis of a traditional Japanese acupressure technique, classic Chinese acupuncture and acupressure theory. Acupressure promotes a pleasant trancelike state, in which one can relax and move out of the head and into the body, accessing feelings and inner wisdom.

Generally a “local point” in a tense area is held together with related “distal points” which, though distant from the tense area, help it to release because of functional and energetic relationships.
