Jin Shin Jyutsu is an ancient energy harmonization practice originating in Japan. It is based on the principle that energy flows through the fingers and hands, connected to various physical and emotional functions of the body. According to this philosophy, working on these points can help restore balance and promote a sense of overall well-being.
It is important to emphasize that: This practice does not in any way replace a medical diagnosis or treatment . It is considered a relaxation and self-massage technique that can complement, but not replace, conventional therapies.
