It is believed that God created human being out of his own energy, and while
he was connected closely with Him, he was fit and healthy. Slowly, as man began
to get self-involved, he left the sanctuary of the spirit. The balance of energy
thus got disturbed and resultant blocks caused innumerable disease. To combat
this and remove the blockages, man sought methods to keep healthy, mentally,
physically and spiritually. As the days passed by, even this knowledge was
obscured, till it was rediscovered and revived by great sages. One method of
healing - Jin Shin Jyutsu - was revived by sage Jiromurai of Japan, who introduced
it to 20th century culture. He referred to this art in many ways including the
art of happiness, the art of longevity, the art of benevolence and finally Jin
Shin Jyutsu, literally translated " the Creator’s art through compassionate
man/woman."Jin Shin Jyutsu is an ancient holistic healing art, which is gentle and
non-invasive. While it is difficult to say exactly where it began, there are
evidences of it in many ancient cultures. Ancient Egypt, India, China and Japan
all have historical evidence that indicates that, what we now call Jin Shin
Jyutsu, was known in those cultures as well.

This art was handed down by word of
mouth for centuries. As with any oral tradition, the true essence and accuracy
of the art eventually became altered, watered-down and called by different
names. This resulted in the emergence of many modified versions. There exists
however, one text where the art was written down in its entirety, though
cryptically. That was in a Japanese text written as a creation story called
Kojiki. |
This healing technique is an art that can be learnt easily by anybody, as it
is simple and easy to practice. It does not involve any pressure or massage.
Gentle holding of specific points in specific patterns assists the release of
energy blockages in the meridians, simultaneously healing it.
