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 Kungrefers 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. 415.690.7059
