Personal Kiatsu Program
Ki does not flow well in a person who is ill or injured. Kiatsu mobilizes a person's natural healing processes by restoring the flow of living energy. Ki pressing improves circulation, reduces tension, and enhances health. It also helps reduce or eliminate pain, stiffness, and swelling caused by stress or minor injury.
The Personal Kiatsu program provides a formalized approach to learning the universal principals of Ki. Students learn Kiatsu and Ki principles for improving health, increasing relaxation, and enhancing their daily lives. After students accomplish these goals for themselves, they can practice Kiatsu to enhance their health.
The purpose of personal Kiatsu training is to develop our living power by utilizing Ki Principles, coordinating mind and body, and applying them to our daily life.Benefits of Personal Kiatsu

About the Personal Kiatsu Program
Vancouver's Personal Kiastu Program is offered as a satellite program through the Northwest Ki Federation and the Oregon Ki Society's Personal Kiatsu School.
The Oregon Ki Society's Personal Kiatsu School opened in February 1993 to teach Master Koichi Tohei's methods for promoting physical and mental health.
The school is the first in the world to offer the opportunity to learn Ki pressing techniques and Ki principles as a complete development program. Developed with the cooperation of Master Tohei, the Personal Kiatsu School is fully accredited by the Ki Society International Headquarters in Japan.
