Specialized Treatment of Joints
These treatment protocols are unique because their emphasis is on joint spaces, in addition to anatomical structures. The techniques presented in this workshop represent a synthesis of training by Asian bonesetters, European osteopaths, and American chiropractors. (More)

Visceral Manipulation
When stress, surgery, injury, etc. cause organs to move out of normal position, complaints such as shoulder pain, back pain, heartburn, constipation, headache, menstrual discomfort, headache, fatigue and general malaise may result. In addition to alleviating these symptoms, Visceral Manipulation elicits a fundamental cellular response that promotes, strengthens and supports the immune system. (More)

Hara: The Fine Art of Ampuku
The hara is equally as effective for treatment as it is for assessing the energetic imbalances of the meridians. Ampuku (treatment of the abdomen) produces deep relaxation and starts the healing response. (More)

Meridian Sensitivity
This workshop develops your sense of touch so that you can identify
each meridian’s unique energetic “feel”. (More)  

The KYO/JITSU Reaction
There is no kyo without jitsu, nor is there jitsu without kyo.
Putting kyo/jitsu theory into practice produces a particular reaction in the hara that is felt upon palpation. The reaction defines the true meridian “diagnosis” or assessment. (More)

Interpreting KYO/JITSU
Once you have found the Kyo/Jitsu Reaction, you need to combine and synthesize the individual kyo and jitsu components into one meaningful composite.    (More)

Shiatsu in a Quantum World

Zen Shiatsu Speciality
Zen Shiatsu is the creation of the late Dr. Shizuto Masunaga, master diagnostician and practitioner.
In Japan, Zen Shiatsu is a graduate level of study that follows the nationally required two-year training. Zen Shiatsu aspires to elevate the practitioner’s abilities beyond balancing Yin/Yang and Zang/Fu. It develops compassionate touch into a healing force that strengthens the body/mind/spirit connection. (More)
