What is Jin Shin Jyutsu?
Jin Shin Jyutsu® physio-philosophy is an ancient art of harmonizing the life energy in the body, restoring health and well-being simply by using our hands.

"It is a way to release the deep tension that is interfering with our body's ability to heal itself ongoingly. Once this deep tension is released, life force energy (or "chi") can move freely thus supporting our entire system; body, mind and spirit.

Jin Shin Jyutsu also balances and strengthens our chi (body's energy). 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. Whenever we experience trauma on any level - physically, mentally, emotionally, or spiritually - our body protects us from a sort of overload by locking up certain key points.

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. "We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give."

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.

What happens during a Jin Shin Jyutsu treatment?
A Jin Shin Jyutsu session 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!
