Happy Summer!

The Basic Jin Shin Do® Bodymind Acupressure has been postponed, we are aiming for Spring 2017. In the meantime if you are interested in JSD, I recommend getting some sessions and let me know if you are interested in a Neck and Shoulder release workshop, or put your name down for the Basic in the Spring.

I have been doing some incredible work with Jin Shin Do® lately, making some very strong connections with people and helping facilitate important insights and releases, especially around trauma.

Catch me at the Friday or Saturday markets on Cortes, or book a private session at 250-250-1175

What is Jin Shin Do®?
Bodymind Acupressure®

“Jin Shin Do” means “The Way of the Compassionate Spirit.” Jin Shin Do® Bodymind Acupressure® uses 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 acu-theory, Taoist philosophy, Qigong (breathing and exercise techniques), Reichian segmental theory and principles of Ericksonian psychotherapy, Jin Shin Do® acupressure was originated by Iona Marsaa Teeguarden.

Jin Shin Do® Bodymind 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.
