About the Jin Shin Do® Foundation for Bodymind Acupressure®:
“Jin Shin Do” means “The Way of the Compassionate Spirit.” Jin Shin
Do® Bodymind Acupressure® classes teach the use of gentle yet deep
finger pressure on specific acu-points and verbal Body Focusing
techniques, to help release "armoring" or chronic tension, balance the "Qi" or energy, and improve vitality.
This clothes-on method helps relieve stress and
trauma related problems.
A unique synthesis of a traditional Japanese acupressure technique, classic Chinese acupuncture and acupressure theory, Taoist philosophy, Qigong (breathing and exercise techniques), Reichian segmental theory and principles of Ericksonian psychotherapy, it is recognized as a major form of Asian Bodywork Therapy (by NCCAOM® & AOBTA® among others). Originated by psychotherapist Iona Marsaa Teeguarden, JSD® Acupressure promotes a pleasant trancelike state, in which one can relax and move out of the head and into the body, accessing feelings and inner wisdom.
The Jin Shin Do® Foundation was founded in 1982.
Jin Shin Do® Acupressure is not intended for the diagnosis, treatment or cure of disease. It is a relaxation therapy, and a useful adjunct to licensed, qualified medical or psychological care. For any persistent pain or symptom, even a seemingly minor one, the reader is strongly encouraged to consult a medical doctor. When used in conjunction with standard medical treatment, the Jin Shin Do Acupressure technique can assist the healing process by releasing tension, decreasing stress and encouraging a sense of increased well-being.
