Jin Shin Do Bodymind Acupressure is the synthesis of Western psychology with Japanese acupressure technique, Chinese acupuncture theory, and Taoist philosophy and technique. Oriental health care philosophy provides a knowledge base for nurses who offer acupressure as an alternative health care choice. Acupressure provides a bodymind approach to pain management and a unique processing method in mental health counseling.
