How to Perform a Soothing Japanese Massage Technique
We are aware that when a masseuse gives a massage there are different types of techniques that they can use. Of these many techniques the Japanese massage is somewhat unique. This Japanese massage is called Shiatsu and while it may have originally been a Chinese form of medicine, the massage itself is has become Japanese.
In this Japanese massage you will find that the therapist uses finger pressure and the bodies own natural weight to help with the massage. For a Japanese massage the person who is having the massage will be able to wear their clothes as it is not necessary for the removal of clothing.
Shiatsu uses the various pressure points in the body to help diagnose and treat various conditions that are found in the person. Like the Chinese acupuncture and Qigong Techniques, Japanese massage techniques makes full use of the energy of Chi that is flowing through the body.
In the Japanese massage the fingers of the massage therapist are used not only to find what sort of problem the patient is suffering from but also the best way to treat this problem as a preventative measure. The use of Japanese massage has been found to help with problems that originate in the bone structure.
It can also help with the healing process for the nervous system, muscles, circulatory system and the internal secretion process. There is also another benefit that is found with a Japanese massage. This is where the massage stimulates the body to produce its own healing capabilities.
The therapist who performs Japanese massage therapies needs to train for quite some time to acquire that ability to detect the various illnesses and underlying medical problems that their patients are suffering from. Today some practitioners of Japanese massage also combine other techniques into their Japanese massage therapy.
For the best type of Japanese massage you should understand that the therapist will need to have some knowledge about the internal problems that are facing the client’s body. There are various standards that need to be adhered to when the client is being given a full Japanese massage.
Unlike the other massages a Japanese massage is conducted on a firm mat that is placed on the ground. With a Japanese massage you will find that your body is helping the therapist to cure you while the massage is being performed.
This form of massage therapy is therefore very similar in nature to that of acupuncture and today it is regarded as a not just a soothing massage technique but it is also seen as a healing practice.

In Qigong for Women, Dominique Ferraro gives step-by-step instructions, accompanied by photos, for dozens of exercises that address the specific concerns of women.

Valuable for all ages, Qigong for Women provides a system, both preventive and curative, to maintain the sense of well-being that we all deserve. |

The Yijing Medical Qigong System $18.48 Yijing (I-Ching) theory is the foundation of Daoism and Chinese medicine, and this book explores the deep roots that they both share. Daoism and Chinese medicine both view the human body as a microcosm of the universe around us; what is happening outside affects us inside. Medical qigong is based on the premise that we can energetically affect something outside based on our intention inside. Much of medical qigong, one of the main branches of Chinese medicine, originates from the practices of Daoist shamanic healers. This book introduces a Chinese medicine healing system based on the principles of the Yijing that serve as the foundation of medical qigong and Daoist spiritual practices. The Yijing Medical Qigong System is a compilation of self-healing exercises and qi emission therapeutic treatment techniques based on Daoist medical qigong and Yijing theories. This system’s approach is unique in that it focuses on the meanings of the trigrams rather than the hexagrams of the Yijing. The eight trigrams are used in innovative ways for healing the body, mind, and spirit. The Yijing Medical Qigong System is based on the premise that the Yijing theory that infuses Chinese medicine and Daoism is just as relevant today for healing and spiritual guidance it was three thousand years ago. |
