A fundamental principle of Chi Nei Tsang is the understanding that the circulation of life force energy must flow throughout the body or stagnation ensues. When stagnation occurs there is an invitation for disease. This principle is especially true for the pelvic organs, an area that is often overlooked in massage. This two day class will focus on palpation skills and massage techniques for releasing stagnation in the kidneys, bladder, uterus, ovaries, prostate, hip joints and psoas muscles. A few of the surprising results of pelvic organ massage are the improvement of the body’s alignment, the ability to be more grounded and its efficacy for resolving low back pain. Other benefits of pelvic organ massage include bringing this forgotten taboo region into embodied consciousness, increased vitality and improved hormonal balance. This course is appropriate both for massage therapists, acupuncturists and other health professionals. It is not necessary to have previous skills in Chi Nei Tsang massage to take this class.
