When we measure the relative health of a joint, we mostly
consider
its ease of movement. But, the space between the structures
that
allows for this freedom is as fundamental component of joints as
the
bony structures composing them . . . perhaps the most important
one.
In this workshop you will learn new skills to:
• Stabilize the axial skeleton and mobilize the joint
• Feel the joint space as clearly as the joint structures
• Orient palpation skills toward expanding the space
• Use the additional space to increase range of motion
• Open the joint and reduce pain
• Restore function to injured joints

The students’ purpose for studying this particular material is
to
understand how the differences between the same symptom in
different
meridians give a more complete view of the big picture. It will
help them, as
practitioners, be able to appropriately orient their approach to
their client’s
complaints. Additionally, it will indicate how to properly modify
the use of
their hands for the treatment that is needed for that client at
that time.
My purpose for having them study this material is to:
• Increase fluency in the language, theory and concepts of Zen
Shiatsu
• Help students become masterful in the practice of their
techniques
• Illuminate the total mind-blowing awesomeness of Zen
Shiatsu!!!
