This is an extraordinary opportunity to study “real Japanese acupuncture,” a truly energetic and comprehensive system that does not rely on stimulating the nervous system through “de qi” sensation. Rather than strong stimulation, all the patient usually feels is profound relaxation. The theoretical aspects of Hari are easily mastered so most of the seminar time is used for hands on training and feedback. This is the key to really learning Hari and producing results in your clinic practice. The seminar format allows you to learn, have questions answered and develop skills while practicing with live feedback from instructor Mr. Kuwahara and members of the Hari society.
Hari is a highly refined form of Traditional Japanese Meridian Therapy. Meridian Therapy focuses on treating the root cause of disease while also effectively treating the immediate symptoms through balancing the body’s ki. Practitioners of this style have developed an extraordinary ability to perceive ki through the practice of ki diagnosis, pulse diagnosis, and non-insertive needle techniques. Mind/body posture is also stressed as an integral aspect to be mastered by the practitioner.
The theoretical foundations of Hari are derived directly from the Chinese Medical Classics, in particular the Su Wen, Ling Shu, and Nan Jing. Every theory used in Hari practice has been tested and validated through intensive clinical practice and training. Hari is a pragmatic, intuitive approach to the practice of acupuncture.
The diagnosis process in Hari focuses on meridian relationships, the five phases, yin/yang theory, the four inspections, and pays special attention to ki. Hari style ki diagnosis centers on feedback from the pulse to monitor the ki of the client before, during, and after treatment. Students train their fingers to recognize subtle changes in the patient’s energetic system and then choose the most effective technique to harmonize and improve his or her overall condition and local symptoms.
Treatment centers on supplementing the primary deficiency pattern and balancing the distribution and circulation of ki in the meridian system. To accomplish this the practitioner employs a delicate needle technique (usually non-insertive) using fine gold or silver needles. To address jaki, or evil ki, students are trained to determine the location and quality of the disturbance and use the appropriate dispersion technique.
