Simple Self-Help for Sore Throats

Here is some simple self-help for sore throats from Jin Shin Jyutsu Physio-Philosophy ®. Jin Shin Jyutsu is an ancient Japanese healing modality rediscovered by Master Jiro Murai. It was brought to the USA and to the world by his disciple Mary Burmeister.

Energy flows through the body. Disharmonies such as sore throats arise when the energy flow is disrupted. In Jin Shin Jyutsu, we place our hands on points in the body known as safety energy locks, in order to restore the flow of energy. When the energy flows, the disharmony goes. Place your hands in the positions indicated for 2-5 minutes to harmonize the flow of energy. If you can feel pulsation under your hands, remove them when pulsation under your hands subsides. Self-help for the left side of the body is indicated below. Feel free to change hand positions for the right side.
