Guides for class
Short texts for the school group. Each one links sheets, regions and practice. None of them is a protocol.
- Kyo and jitsu: empty and full in Masunaga studyWhat kyo and jitsu mean in Zen Shiatsu: qualities of attention at the table, not a diagnosis. Links hara, Masunaga and the atlas.
- Meridian clock: the two-hour cycleEducational table of the Chinese meridian clock: twelve channels, two hours each, from Lung to Liver. For studying the cycle, not for treating by the hour.
- What a cun is: a measure of one's own bodyThe cun is the body proportion used to study point location: thumb, four fingers, and examples such as ST36 and LI4. Educational.
- Shiatsu, acupressure and acupuncture: how they differA comparison for students: shiatsu (pressure, hara, Masunaga and Namikoshi), acupressure on points, and needle acupuncture. Meridiania studies the maps; it does not treat.
