This technique and approach is part of the class Governing Vessel & the Spine. During this 6 day intensive, we delve into a unique system of evaluation and treatment for governing vessel, the central energy flow of the body. The spine itself is considered the material manifestation of governing vessel energy. By working with the spine through a certain perceptual awareness, you learn new ways to diagnosis and treat that touch the core potential of a person. This work activates the ability to not only heal, but develop and evolve.

One of the main evaluation tools we study is motion. Shizuto Masunaga, a prominent shiatsu visionary, said that motion is synonymous with the basic life function. The more motion we can introduce back into the body, the more life force becomes available for engagement in the present.
