Book Synopsis Masunaga Shiatsu 1st Manuals by : Shizuto Masunaga
Download or read book Masunaga Shiatsu 1st Manuals written by Shizuto Masunaga and published by SHIATSU MILANO EDITORE. This book was released on 2019-07-04 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 70’s Shizuto Masunaga Sensei, creator of Keiraku shiatsu (meridian shiatsu), delivered fourweek correspondence courses providing students with his own purpose‐written material. We saw these course books during a visit to the Iokai Shiatsu Centre in Tokyo and given their valuable content decided to translate and publish them. Other than their historical interest, we believe the four volumes (this is the first) will be extremely helpful to shiatsu students, practitioners and teachers alike. The extensive topics covered in the four manuals range from the history of shiatsu, the Japanese legislature on the subject, how to execute pressure and the rules to follow, basic techniques, exercises for health, shiatsu as first aid, clinical shiatsu, shiatsu for children and aesthetics.

Book excerpt: JAPANESE FULL-BODY SHIATSU is not only an introduction to ancient oriental philosophy for those wishing to practice self-correcting holistic health care, but it is also a seasoned practitioners' guide to giving full Shiatsu. It walks the reader through a typical Shiatsu session, step-by-step, in clean and concise language with easy to follow illustrations. At each step of the session, the reader learns which meridians they are working and what medicinal indications they are affecting. By itself, this book is an invaluable resource of practical knowledge. However, in addition to the practitioner's guide to full-body Shiatsu, this book also contains a complimentary and companion publication on acupressure points. Under its own published title, Illustrated Acupoint Compendium, it contains a complete listing of the 361 standard acupoints as well as 119 extra-ordinary and new points. It describes each acupoint's location in understandable western anatomical terms, and lists medicinal indications for each point. Together in one volume, both books, Japanese Full-Body Shiatsu and Illustrated Acupoint Compendium, become an indispensable reference for students and practitioners alike, as they learn to promote general health and well-being in themselves and others!
Book Synopsis A Practical Guide to Acu-points by : Chris Jarmey
Download or read book A Practical Guide to Acu-points written by Chris Jarmey and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2008 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An understanding of acu-points is vital not only for acupuncturists but also for bodyworkers. This user-friendly manual contains current, comprehensive information for both groups, with special emphasis on how shiatsu and tuina therapists can best utilize point knowledge in their practice. Renowned experts Chris Jarmey and Ilaira Bouratinos use succinct text, a well-organized framework, and detailed color anatomical illustrations to clarify the complexities of acu-points. In keeping with normal practice, the authors give the precise anatomical location of a point and illustrate it with a dot, along with alternative locations where relevant. However, the book goes further by delineating the larger area where the point can be activated by pressure, gua sha, and other means. In addition, it explains the optimum physical position for treatment via acupuncture, acupressure, and other strategies, as treatment positions can vary according to the method of point stimulation. The book also documents the distribution of sensation resulting from point stimulation, and differentiates between pressure and needle application where appropriate. A Practical Guide to Acu-Points presents a wealth of carefully researched information equally valuable for professionals, students, and conscientious practitioners.
