Some Testimonies.....
..." Jin Shin Jyutsu treatments have help me on the path of caring for my body, mind and spirit while I am healing from cancer. During each session I feel closer to healing. My fears decrease as my energy increases everyday. Mercedes inspires me and my family by sharing her experience and knowledge of Traditional Naturophatic Medicine, and Jin Shin Jyutsu. Mercedes introduced me to the teachings of H.H. The Dalai Lama, and invited me to a talk with Thich Naht Hahn, took me to receive the blessings from Ammachi, "The Hugging Saint". She shared her teachers and help me change my way of life. After each treatment with Mercedes I feel
energetic and confident, peaceful and more loving of
the process of healing. M.R.M.
..."I received my first treatment of Jin Shin Jyutsu from Mercedes after being diagnosed with rheumatic arthritis. I was even too tired and in pain to walk or to continue doing the things I like. Now, I am more aware of my body needs and have started to enjoy my life again. I feel I have discovered a new source of health and energy within that is allowing me to thrive through these otherwise difficult times." Composer, Woodstock, N.Y.
..."When I came to Mercedes for Jin Shin Jyutsu treatments, I had been suffering from insomnia and neck pain for several years. I used to take several anti-inflammatory pills every day. I felt better from the very first treatment. Regular Jin Shin Jyutsu sessions have helped me understand more about myself and how to help my emotions and body in a more natural way. I was able to discontinue all the pills for insomnia after 5 months of treatments. " Computer Engineer, Kingston, N.Y.
..."After several treatments of Jin Shin Jyutsu I have gained freedom from old habits that limited my behavior. Mercedes treatments and teachings in how to help myself by placing my hands in my Safety Energy Locks to release blocks and promote well being, have been on of the greatest gifts in my life. With renewed energy and stamina has come healing. Today at 63, I am seeing life differently and doing things I never thought possible. Thanks to Mercedes' Jin Shin Jyutsu treatments and encouragement I am studying Jin Shin Jyutsu and Nutrition, and have deepened my spiritual practice. R.N. New Winsdor, N.Y.
