This is a Japanese technique for stress reduction and relaxation which can also cause healing. The treatment involves lightly placing the hands on various parts of the body for a few minutes in each position. Energy of a high vibration enters the body and causes various organs which are stressed or diseased to harmonically raise their vibration to a health, healing level. Emotional, mental and spiritual problems can be healed. The after effects of a treatment are a feeling of warmth all over, mental peace and a joy. For more information please call 421-8515.
