Jin Shin Jyutsu is the art of harmonizing the body’s energy system using gentle hand application in specific patterns called flows. I am a Jin Shin Jyutsu practitioner located in Lexington, Kentucky. I have studied and practiced the art of JSJ for 8+ year, completing more than 450 hours of training. I see clients by appointment in my office at 2121 Richmond Rd. in Lexington, as well as at St Joseph Hospital Hospice Care Center and at the University of Kentucky's Markey Cancer Center. I teach Self Help classes and an introductory “What is Jin Shin Jyutsu?” classes on an ongoing basis. Nursing CEUs are available. Please contact me with your interest and any questions.

Stand up!

Has every mother in America hollered "Stand up straight!" to their hunched over teenager? It may not be that their child simply wants to perfect their runway model walk or disappear into the woodwork. The energy of the spine is simply needing to be opened up so the back will straighten. To do this simply put your hands on you back hip area (you know, that spot that feels tender?) and hold gently. After a minute or two, you'll feel your back relax and will find yourself standing straight like a yardstick. Mom would be so pleased!
