Acupuncture
Mitchell specializes in a highly refined method of Japanese Acupuncture called Toyohari. Acupuncture is a holistic practice in which no single aspect of someone’s health is appraised separately from the whole person. Physical, emotional, environmental, and psychological conditions are all considered and addressed in creating a treatment plan.
We all have an innate ability to heal our selves. Our bodies are constantly trying to find balance and harmony to achieve maximum functioning. An organic illness is the result of a prolonged imbalanced life style. The underlying disharmony and feelings of disease exist long before an illness can be identified and named in a bio-medical sense. The aim of the acupuncturist is to help correct these patterns of disharmony and thereby guide the body to restore its natural state of equilibrium, good health and vitality.
Sessions with Mitchell
Mitchell works with only one patient at a time so that you will have his undivided attention. The sessions are not only intended to relieve your symptoms but are intended to balance and nurture your whole self by addressing the underlying Root imbalance. This form of Root treatment is a specialty of his training. Both Acupuncture and Shiatsu are usually incorporated into the session as needed.
Due to Mitchell’s experience, beneficial results can often be experienced even after one session. Results and frequency of sessions are impossible to predict but usually can be surmised based upon patient response.
Patients often continue to receive ongoing sessions as a form of health maintenance after the initial health concern has been resolved.
Many clients that he has worked with for years, come regularly for support with their busy and stressful lives.
Shiatsu
Mitchell began studying Shiatsu, Japanese Acupressure, in 1981 under the guidance of Master Wataru Ohashi. Ohashi Sensei is the creator of Ohashiatsu and was a pioneer in bringing this healing art to America.
Mitchell taught at The Ohashi Institute for over 20 years.
The client wears loose fitting cotton clothing during a session.There are no oils or lotions used. The method involves gentle vertical pressure into the muscles along with stretching and joint mobilization to free the body of pain and limitation.
Mitchell offers his very popular expert shiatsu sessions as a stand alone experience as well as integrating it within acupuncture sessions.
