In Japan, all living things are thought to be manifestations of one universal life force called ki (chi in Chinese). The existence of plants, animals, and people is maintained by, and composed of, this all-embracing ki. When ki is strong and flowing freely, health is maintained. But when it weakens, illness and depression often result. Special healing methods are then needed to restore ki, or “life energy.”
Sennin Ryoji, the “Sennin Foundation Healing Methods,” powerfully strengthen ki to overcome tension, illness, and injury. Japanese massage-like techniques are coupled with procedures for dynamically transferring ki from the therapist to the patient using gentle pressure from the thumbs, fingertips, and palms. This is Yuki, the “Transfusion of Ki,” and it’s comparable to jumpstarting a car’s depleted battery.
Our healing class consists of methods bearing an outward resemblance to acupressure (shiatsu) and “laying on of hands.” Despite such resemblances, the techniques are wholly unique, and they aim at restoring and preserving genki, a state of perfect health.
H. E. Davey Sensei, the primary instructor at the Sennin Foundation Center, began studying this holistic healing art under experienced Japanese teachers while still in middle school. Author of the acclaimed book Japanese Yoga: The Way of Dynmic Meditation, he has taught innumerable people how to regain mental/physical wellbeing and how to help others to do the same. The methods he teaches stem from the hitori massage (self-massage and healing) of the original Shin-shin-toitsu-do of Nakamura Tempu Sensei, the modified versions of Shin-shin-toitsu-do created by some of Nakamura Sensei’s students, and the Yuki of Noguchi Haruchika Sensei. He has studied under direct students of these remarkable healers, both in the Japan and the USA.
Included at no extra charge is training in the Shin-shin-toitsu-do system of Japanese yoga and meditation. Call the Sennin Foundation Center (510-526-7518) soon to discover how to enhance your health, energy level, and mind/body wellness.
