Chi Nei Tsang
Chi Nei Tsang is an ancient Taoist form of gentle massage therapy for the abdomen. This comprehensive approach to healing empowers individuals to care for themselves in an informed way. It facilitates an awareness of our own internal organs and insight into their role in good health and illness. The first principle of healing in Chi Nei Tsang is to breath deeply. Breath is considered pure life force and activates the exchange of old, stale energy and toxins for fresh clean nourishing energy which revitalizes the whole system. Chi Nei Tsang creates the opportunity to explore the deepest and most sensitive area of our body, the belly and allows contact with the emotions held there. It is also a powerful balancing, detoxifying and strengthening tool for the whole body. The practice of Chi Nei Tsang helps to develop greater awareness of the internal organs and their role in good health.
Chi Nei Tsang Treatments
Treatment sessions involve massaging the internal organs and doing deep breathing practices, as well as learning self-massage and other self-care techniques like chi kung and meditation. Treatments are done fully clothed wearing something loose and comfortable.
"Breath is the bridge between all levels of awareness: mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual."
-Gilles Marin, Director of the Chi Nei Tsang Institute
