Jin Shin Jyutsu
I love things that are simple, and yet very effective. That is exactly what Jin Shin Jyutsu (JSJ) is. This is a very wonderful light touch therapy. I always say “Think of acupuncture but NO needles, just hands. It’s what they did before they had needles.” If you have always wanted to try acupuncture or have in the past .but you just don’t like needles then this may be an option for you.
Jin = man,
Shin = Creator,
Jyutsu = art,
The final interpretation became “Art of the Creator through man of knowing and compassion. It is also known as the “Art of Happiness”,”Art of longevity”, and “Art of Benevolence”. History suggests at one time everyone knew about this art, but somehow and with time it faded away and was nearly lost. Out of dire necessity it was rediscovered, developed and passed on by Jiro Murai of Japan.
This is Mary Burmeister’s explanation; she brought JSJ to the US. “What makes the heart beat? What makes breathing possible? What makes digestion possible? What makes the car engine start when you turn on the key? What makes the car light turn on? The answer to the last two questions is would simply be: the Battery of the car. The battery is the necessary energy source for the various functions of the car. The answer to what is energy for the body would simply be: The battery of life, life force.” An energy source is necessary for the various functions of the body. Today we might call this prana, qui, ki, life force energy or even something else. It is what makes the EKG and EEG work, both, machines used to detect and monitor life.
In the application of JSJ our hands are like jumper cables. One is negative the other positive. So just like jump starting a car there is a negative and positive pole and an energy source. The electricity of the battery or life force energy for our bodies just wants to make the circuit. There are many paths of energy flowing in us, when they become congested, stagnant, or blocked for periods of time adverse conditions, discomforts, or dis-eases may occur. Letting these blockages clear out or restore their natural pattern helps to restore balance of body, mind and spirit. Sometimes with amazing results.
The headquarters of JSJ has always been in Scottsdale Arizona. Strangely, JSJ is much more popular, taught more and respected more in South America and Europe. In Japan it is highly respected and place at a level equivalent to physician or acupuncturist. Currently JSJ is little known in Idaho. There are just a very small handful of certified practitioners in our entire state. I am very thankful and excited to now be a certified practitioner of JSJ. I am grateful for the opportunity to introduce, educate and serve our part of Idaho with this gentle yet powerfully effective practice. This is a dream come true for me.
As my 1st instructor said, “Not enough can be said about the benefits of Jin Shin Jyutsu”.
