Jin Shin Jyutsu®
Jin Shin Jyutsu® is
a gentle and profoundly powerful healing art whose roots derive from
ancient Eastern medicine and universal wisdom. Said to predate Buddha
and Moses, it was rediscovered in the early 1900s by Master Jiro Murai
in Japan. Having successfully utilized this art to recover from a
"terminal" illness, Master Murai devoted himself to the study and
revival of this art for future generations. His American student, Mary
Iino Burmeister, brought this art to the United States. Its study and
practice has spread around the world.
Jin Shin
Jyutsu unlocks our innate ability to heal ourselves by restoring
balance to the various energetic pathways which circulate throughout
our bodies. The pathways (or flows) feed life into all of our
cells. The flows build, protect, and repair all aspects of Being. When
one or more of these pathways becomes blocked, the damming effect may
lead to pain or illness. When the energies of these pathways are in
harmony, health of body-mind-spirit is profoundly enhanced.
Jin
Shin Jyutsu helps one's immune system to work at its highest
potential. Therefore, discomfort or pain in any of the body's functions
is alleviated. Examples of issues that may be helped include headaches,
muscle pain, injuries, digestive problems, depression, allergies, etc.
This
gentle art is practiced by placing fingertips (over clothing) on
designated areas of the body in various sequences to harmonize and
restore correct energy flow. The client rests on a massage table while
the practitioner works with flows appropriate to the client's needs.
