DETOXIFY DETOXIFY DETOXIFY
Our navel is a map of the entire human body and the Chi Nei Tsang practitioner is trained to “read” this map in order to see the story the body is trying to communicate. In our mother’s belly, the navel is where we get our original information and energy, or “Chi” via the umbilical cord. Every single cell is imbibed with our genetic code and the information required to make us whole. Our navel is our first scar, and as a result a major point where toxins and congestion may accumulate. We begin at the navel and work outwards affecting the organs where many undigested emotional charges wait for the appropriate time to digest. By working directly on the internal organs, CNT accesses deep points of the meridian system which activates the “energy superhighway” through the fasciae of the body. Using breath to bring awareness to places in the body, a Chi Nei Tsang treatment allows for an immense amount of detoxification to happen on all levels-physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual. CNT and Applied Chi Kung address all systems of the body including but not limited to the visceral, musculo-skeletal, endocrine, reproductive, respiratory, lymphatic, and metabolic, etc.
Origins of Chi Nei Tsang
Chi Nei Tsang (Internal Organs Energy Transformation) is a holistic approach to health discovered and developed thousands of years ago in the mountains of China, to help the Taoist monks acquire the energy necessary to achieve the highest levels of meditative practices. Adapted for practical use today, this practice mostly revolves around using safe, deep and gentle touch applied directly to the abdomen. The abdomen, or tan tien in Chinese and referred to as the hara in Japanese is the center of our body and the place from which our power, vitality and movement originates.
Applied Chi Kung
Applied Chi Kung refers to the transmitting of life force energy from the practitioner to the student. “Chi” can be translated in various ways, but here I will translate it as energy + information, and “kung” as work or mastery. So we have the application of the mastery of energy work.Chi Nei Tsang and Applied Chi Kung help reprogram the whole person on a cellular level, actually restructuring our DNA. Applied Chi Kung is truly a holistic approach to health, happiness and longevity.
Chi Nei Tsang:
Chi Nei Tsang is a holistic approach to the healing touch modality of old Taoist Chinese origin. It integrates the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of our being. CNT goes to the very origin of health problems, including psychosomatic responses.
Chi Nei Tsang literally means “working the energy of the internal organs” or “internal organs chi transformation.” CNT uses all the principles of Kung-Fu and Tai Chi Chuan known as Chi-Kung; therefore, CNT is a form of “applied Chi Kung.”
CNT practitioners are trained in Chi-Kung and work mainly on the abdomen with deep, soft and gentle touches, to train internal organs to work more efficiently. Unprocessed emotional charges are also addressed in this manner, as well as all of the body systems: digestive, respiratory, cardiovascular, lymphatic, nervous, endocrine, urinary, reproductive, muscular-skeletal, and the acupuncture meridian system (Chi).
CNT came into being millennia ago in the mountain ranges of Taoist China. It was used by monks in monasteries to help detoxify, strengthen and refine their bodies in order to maintain the high energy required to perform the highest levels of spiritual practices.
Today CNT is Mainly Used for Four Different Reasons:
1 - CNT detoxifies: CNT manipulations help relieve the body of excess stagnation, improving elimination and stimulating the lymphatic and the circulatory systems. CNT also strengthens the immune system and resistance to diseases. In doing so, CNT augments other health care modalities with optimal results. (Clients using CNT before and after surgery recover better and faster.
2 - CNT helps to restructure and strengthen the body: because it addresses the visceral structures and positioning of internal organs, CNT stimulates them to work better and also helps correct the postural problems resulting from visceral imbalances. It releases deep-seated tensions and restores vitality. CNT has been helpful with chronic pains such as back, neck and shoulder pains and problems related to misalignment of the feet, legs and pelvis.
3 - CNT helps clients to deal better with their emotional life: all of our unprocessed emotional life is stored in our digestive system waiting to be addressed. Poor emotional digestion is also one of the main reasons for ill health. CNT facilitates the unfolding of emotions and the clarification of our emotional life. This makes it possible for us to evolve and grow in the direction of our better self. CNT has also been successfully used in combination with psychotherapy.
4 - CNT teaches clients to know themselves better: at the Chi Nei Tsang Institute, we believe that we are all responsible for our own health and that healing comes from within. We teach you techniques to improve your breathing as well as fundamental self-help techniques. We also provide: guidance in personalizing your diet and other health-related lifestyle matters, and specific and relevant visualization and meditation practices to further enhance the effect of manual treatments.
