Has anyone used the techniques for Hara Shiatsu from the book, Hara Diagnosis: Reflections on the Sea? What were your results or thoughts? Thank you.

Is anyone from Massachusetts? I read the state massage regulation which exempts Asian Bodywork from licensing. Can anyone say why this was done? I'd also like to know how this affects competition with Bodyworkers who are not licensed and Massage Therapists who are licensed. This is different than anything I have seen before.

Tracey look for a Chinese Martial Artist (Qi Gong, Kung Fu) Masters are trained in TCM. You can get a traditional education from them. If you find a high level Hapkido Master from Korea they may know Hwal Bup Do which is the Korean healing art which among manual healing I think is one of the best. Among Japanese a Ju Jitsu Master may know the Japanese traditional healing art. You might also find in a Japanese community a practitioner of traditional healing, such as Sekkotsu (接骨). If you find one of these traditional teachers you will learn a more complete system of healing than any of the branded classes.

If anyone is interested in studying Ohashiatsu in the Burlington area, let me know. I am a certified Ohashiatsu Instructor and just moved to Colchester/Milton.

Wow, thanks Michael for the fast response! I'll give the link a look. With all the books and dvd's out there, it's nice to get a referral.

I am a traditionally western trained mt. Swedish, deep tissue, myofascial etc. However, my view on healthcare is straight up TCM. I was not raised this way to be certain but my time living in Shanghai began an awakening in me that has brought me around to the truth within me and that is I was born to practice TCM massage. Unfortunatly, I've been unable to find a Tuina certification program here in Michigan. You would think there would be one in Ann Arbor with their huge asian student population, but alas I've not found one. I have found a five day certification class in Boston this May and am thinking of attending. Does anyone know of any online classes in Tuina that are decent to get me started? I would love to get some basic information.
