Born of innate wisdom...
and passed down from generation to generation by word of mouth, the Art of Jin Shin Jyutsu had fallen into relative obscurity when it was dramatically revived in the early 1900's by Master Jiro Murai in Japan.
After clearing himself of life threatening illness, Master
Mural devoted the rest of his life to the research and development of Jin Shin Jyutsu. He gathered insight from a range of experiences and resources, including The Kojiki (a Shinto text). His research is preserved in the Imperial Court Archives of Japan. The resulting knowledge of Jin Shin Jyutsu was passed to Mary Burmeister, who brought it to the United States in the 1950's.
Mary Burmeister began teaching the Art to others in the early 1960's, and today there are thousands of students through the United States and around the world.
Burmeister describes Jin Shin Jyutsu (which means "art of the Creator through compassionate man" in Japanese) as a "physio-philosophy" that is used by everyone unconsciously, doesn't "do" anything, yet encompasses everything. "I call it the art of life, the art of life itself. it is the whole cosmos and cannot be categorized," Burmeister explains.
The purpose of Jin Shin Jyutsu is to release the tensions that cause various physical symptoms. The body, Burmeister teaches, contains energy pathways that feed life into all cells. When one or more of these paths become blocked, the damming effect can lead to discomfort or pain. Jin Shin Jyutsu, like acupuncture and acupressure, reharmonizes and balances the energy flows.
