Jin Shin Jyutsu is a gentle energetic healing art form that does not use massage or tissue manipulation.  When the practitioner's hands are placed on the body on the appropriate "SEL" or Safety Energy Lock, the practitioner will listen and feel for synchronized pulses. Each step of a flow takes several minutes. You as the client may feel energy moving throughout the body or "zaps" of energy. Also, digestion may be activated or slowed down (based on the body's needs). We say that Jin Shin Jyutsu is like tuning a violin! The session will allow you to feel relaxed, sometimes, an emotional release will occur. Additionally while some clients feel an immediate difference, some feel it after sleeping the next day.

JIn Shin Jyutsu helps everything and cannot do harm. The idea is to bring the body as close to its natural balance as possible. Many people who use Jin Shin are cancer patients because Jin Shin does not use needles. In addition Jin Shin helps will all kinds of pains, emotional balance, insomnia,  hormones, the endocrine system, organ function, and much more. There is a flow for almost all ailments or what we call, "projects."

Generally a Jin Shin Jyutsu  session takes about an hour. However in some cases more than an hour is needed especially for the first visit. If it is your first visit, plan for 90 minutes. If working on children, the session usually takes 30 minutes or less.

Before a Jin Shin Jyutsu treatment, try not to eat a heavy meal. Please wear loose clothing to maximize the flow of energy. Also, please use the restroom before your session. Several things may occur during a Jin Shin Jyutsu treatment, one common effect is crying or laughing. These are part of the healing process and encouraged.  Some clients fall asleep, others will feel energized. After a Jin Shin Jyutsu treatment, you may not want to schedule any demanding activities as you may feel different and as your body recalibrates. You should feel lighter, less pain, relaxed and much more centered. Some people have recovered from injuries and health projects.
