the Japanese practice of healing with your fingertips

"Balance your body, mind, and spirit and heal yourself with your own hands using this clear, step-by-step illustrated guide to the practice of the ancient Japanese healing art of Jin Shin--written by a trained expert with nearly three decades of experience. You might be surprised to learn that the majority of today's most common ailments including anxiety, backaches, colds and flu, digestive issues, immune disorders, migraines, and insomnia, can be alleviated naturally by restoring and harmonizing blocked, stagnant energy. The art of Jin Shin, based on the Japanese healing art of energy medicine, is practiced throughout the world. While related to acupressure and massage therapy, this holistic practice uses only minimal pressure and gentle touching with the fingers and hands to redirect or unblock the flow of energy along the body's fifty-two points (twenty-six on each side of the body)--called Safety Energy Locations, or SELs--areas where energy tends to get congested. This simple, non-invasive process allows your body's energy to flow smoothly, and with balance restored, you will experience a sense of wellbeing and calm. The Art of Jin Shin explains all the basics of this healing art and provides you with the knowledge you need to practice it on yourself--with exercises ranging from simply holding a finger for a few minutes to spending twenty minutes to harmonize a specific circulation pattern. Whether you desire a deeper understanding of the body/mind/spirit connection or want to create a daily Jin Shin maintenance routine the power is literally at your fingertips"--, Provided by publisher"Jin Shin Jyutsu: Healing at Your Fingertips is a complete self-help guide to the practice of the ancient Japanese healing art that balances body, mind and spirit by using our hands. Illustrated throughout and written by a trained Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioner with 25 years of experience, the book will appeal to the growing market of people turning to holistic treatments that complement Western medicine for pain and common afflictions such as anxiety, stress, and insomnia"--, Provided by publisher
