Are you ready to begin a new healing and learning journey with Jin Shin Do® Bodymind Acupressure™ If you are ready to satisfy your curiosity, please confirm you can attend and register for, or possibly even host a class at your location.

Are you curious to explore and access the primary channels of energy in our bodies called the Extraordinary Vessels/Embryonic Vessels/Strange Flows/Psychic Channels to support yours and others healing? Are you curious to learn how to access these reservoirs of energy along with the eight bodymind Segments formulated by Wilhelm Reich by initially using a basic set of at least 55 basic acu-points to help manage stress and tension in your body? Do you know that Jin Shin Do® is a unique form of acupressure blending theories from both Eastern and Western origins, that can be integrated into your own self-healing, your care for others, or into your professional therapy practice as a hands-on way of gently accessing and balancing physical and emotional stress and tension?

If you are ready to satisfy your curiosity, please confirm you can attend and register for, or possibly even host a class at your location for one of the following:

Jin Shin Do®, meaning "The Way of the Compassionate Spirit", is a complete body-mind system of acupressure, which uses safe, gentle yet deep finger pressure for the deep release of muscular tension and to stimulate and balance the body's energy (Qi). Similar in theory to acupuncture, but without the use of needles, Jin Shin Do® acupressure uses finger pressure on acu-points, along with body-focusing techniques, as a way of accessing, releasing and balancing the flow of vital energy in the body to relieve physical and emotional stress and pain. The removal of energy blockages maintains and restores good health and facilitates the body's innate healing ability.

In Basic Jin Shin Do®, the first of four courses comprising the first 150-hours of theory and technique in Module I of the JSD practitioner certification requirements, you will learn:

  1. Acupressure theory and 55 acu-point locations in relation to surrounding anatomy.

  2. How to help people enter a deep state of relaxation and release pain and tensions.

  3. A simple release method using a colour-coded chart of local and distal points.

  4. A segmental release method, based on Wilhelm Reich's theory of horizontal bands of muscular armoring, using acu-point combinations for common problems.

  5. The 8 "Extraordinary Vessels", Strange Flows or Embryonic Vessels, the energetic blueprint of the bodymind, and practice using their points for balancing the entire energy body and for general relaxation.

  6. Process the feelings and images which may arise from the body during a release.

  7. How to perform simple movements (Korean Qi Gong- The Eight Silken Movements) to facilitate relaxation and structural energetic balancing. (Qi Gong will be practiced outside each day weather permitting.)

Jin Shin Do®, meaning "The Way of the Compassionate Spirit", is a complete bodymind system of acupressure, which uses safe, gentle yet deep finger pressure for the deep release of muscular tension, and emotional stress and pain, and to stimulate and balance the body's energy (Qi). In the Jin Shin Do® Acupressure Facial, a 7-to-14 -hour course of theory and technique credited toward JSD practitioner certification requirements, you will learn:

  • and practice a 6-point Jin Shin Do® Neck and Shoulder Release for balancing the flow of released energy to close an acupressure session. Massage therapists who learn this say,"I use the JSD Neck-Shoulder Release with every massage that I do! (CE credits for RMTs)

  • to locate over 55 acu-points in the 12-step Jin Shin Do® Acupressure Facial for release of tension in the face, head, and neck. (1& ˝-day), to encourage your inner radiance to shine. (Clients at the Grand Wailea Resort & Spa, Maui, love this and want it again at home.)

  • how to use specific combinations of acu-points, with a focus on the main neck points called "the Windows to the Sky", to release stress held in the face, neck, head, shoulders, arms and hands, as well as improve the circulation of Qi up and down the entire body.

  • how to release energy pathways in the face & neck for radiant beauty: Releasing muscle tension in the face, head and neck helps to reduce stress and facilitate relaxation throughout the body-mind, that will enhance appearance from the inside out. Facial acupressure also improves skin condition by encouraging circulation of blood and energy.

  • how the habitual expression or holding back of feelings affects the musculature of the face and the corresponding flow of energy through the acupressure meridians in the face and neck.

  • and experience lots of hands-on practice and self-care techniques.
