Emphasising women's health ~ Kyoko Kishi

Emphasising women's health

With Kyoko Kishi

November 13-14 2004

In Penarth, overlooking the Sea, Near Cardiff

Kyoko Kishi sensei's touch has been finely tuned over many years while handling the thread from thousands of silkworms. She would then weave the silk and create the most exquisite traditional silk Kimonos.

Kyoko’s unusual introduction to the life of touch, coupled with over 15 years of continual training with Sensei Kishi has created her unique approach to Seiki–Soho. She is a compassionate and sensitive practitioner and teacher who has taught around the world, and we feel privileged to host her on third visit to Wales.

Seiki: Basic Seiki Principles

There are three basic Principles to the Seiki Method:

1) The use of Integral body movement
In Seiki Soho practice we use a specific way of body movement that roots in the body centre. The entire body is moved as one and thus approaching osmosis. If there is tension in your body this will yield resistance in the person treated and would make treatment ineffective or even cause pain. Thus the use of relaxed integral body movement is important in order to achieve osmosis. As this is not the way we move in everyday habit, we study Kata and Ki exercises and Gioki in order to augment our possibilities.

2) The special use of the breath
When practicing Seiki we make the connection with the breath of the person treated. Especially the end of the breathing out is used to relax into the connection, and then just before the new breath is taken in you release completely and free your mind

3) The use of the hand without using the hand movement
Seiki unlike Shiatsu or massage does not use stimulation or manipulation. The hands or thumbs are used to make the connection but not to stimulate. Every moment emerges from the relaxed and very sensitive following of the inner movement of the person treated. Seiki is a path of devotion (tariki) trusting that the body already knows the way.
