Jin Shin Jyutsu for General Health & Organ Function
Allergies & Skin Support with Jin Shin Jyutsu
Jin Shin Jyutsu provides simple, natural techniques to help the body respond to allergies and support healthy skin. These gentle hand placements can assist with food reactions, hayfever, itchy skin, and deeper skin conditions such as acne.
Use these techniques regularly or whenever symptoms arise. Gentle touch and slow breathing are all that’s needed.

Place the other hand on the opposite outer foot (Point 24).
(If this is difficult to reach, place the other hand on the groin/lower abdomen – Point 15 instead.)
Breathe slowly and deeply.
Hold for several minutes to help reduce reactions and support skin clarity.
