Chi Nei Tsang.

チネイザン

Chi Nei Tsang translates into “transformation of the internal organs energy”. It is a holistic approach by working on the abdomen in a way that triggers internal “adjustment” to integrate a physical, mental, emotional and spiritual energy. It helps simulate the organ system naturally to allow for optimal function and helps the body fight disease and maintain radiant health.

Chi Nei Tsang complements all modalities provided at Yugen Japanese Medicine. However, unlike other modalities which use indirect methods to contact the internal organs, it directly massages the internal organs. It is the most comprehensive approach to energizing, strengthening, and detoxifying the internal system.

These disturbances can cause physical tangling and knot of the nerves, blood vessels and lymph nodes. It also clears out the toxins, bad emotions, and excessive heat or heat deficiencies that cause the organs to dysfunction …

“I can warmly recommend Minoru of Yugen clinic.

Minoru’s unique approach to shiatsu massage combined with experience as a sports massage therapist was instrumental in the healing of an acute shoulder injury which resulted in shoulder and neck pain. My chronic headache benefited immensely from his skilled approach.

As a pain physician and a patient I believe his personality, skills and treatment concept have a calming, healing effect which help manage both acute and chronic pain.

I cannot thank Minoru enough for bringing major improvement to my quality of life by helping manage my pain.”
