Jin Shin Jyutsu / Accupressure
Jin Shin Jyutsu Accupressure
This is a very practical, abridged version of accupressure. It’s a hybridized and sometimes a disputed discipline. Due to the fact that the modality I learned picks from Japanese and Chinese medicine, it can attract attention from critics. I am of the mind that if something is practical and gives results then its origins (albeit Chinese, Japanese, etc ) are not really a focal point.
By no means do I profess to have more than a cursory understanding of traditional Chinese Medicine and healing. I can say that this modality ties in very nicely with Shing Yi Chuan and the internal Chinese martial arts.
The common denominator is both are based on Chinese 5 elements.
If one observes the diagram you can see a basic overview of how this works. The outer arrows represent how one element produces the next. Hence we have production cycle. The elements across from each other are simultaneously the ones that ‘conquer’.
For example metal cuts wood. Therefore some know this as the conquering cycle. You may see it called something else. However it is usually a synonym for production/ conquering. The key is a basic understanding if one wishes to heal or be healed.
Another fascinating concept is that each element is related to a primary and secondary organ in our torso. Going deeper each element relates to energy lines called meridians. Example: The metal meridians are connected to lung and large intestine. The lung meridian travels from the hand up the arm and follows into the upper arm. Large Intestine continues onward through the shoulder inside the neck and terminates near the philtrum. Philtrum being that groove under your nose. It is easier to study anatomy charts, doagrams and 3D mannequins rather than have one trace them on your body as these turn inward and change direction.
This is one of the reasons I chose Mystic Energy Arts as a name. Someone or multiple people discovered this energetic system. It was not invented. If I may paraphrase Sifu Tom Morrissey.
I offer one free trial treatment. This consists of an interview to find out what is the imbalance or ailment. If I can cross reference what is going on I can then research which treatment (energetic flow) needind to be addressed. Next I take your pulse on the wrist to discover which point ( correlating to an organ) is dominant. Many times that pulse that correlates ties in with the ailment. From there I can suggest a specific flow.
This flow treatment entails reclining on the back and allowing the points to be harmonize. It is not like accupressure massage. It involves a delicate touch and an order of operation specific to each flow.
Actual treatment does not exceed 50 minutes. The entire process would take about an hour. I can screen the ailment ahead of time. If this something you are interested in. The best way to reach out at this time would be my Instagram , Facebook , or Twitter. Soon I’ll post an email you can reach me at as well. Be Well .
