We all know that emotions are better expressed in actions rather than in words. The same thing applies with our bodies. Our emotions, whether bad or good, are believed to be showing in our physical appearance. In short, we don t have to tell what we are feeling for other people to know as they can be noticed in our physical appearance. People with negative emotions are stressed and in pain, while on the other hand, individuals who have good memories to remember tend to be much healthier and livelier than the former. Our feelings are regarded to be connected with our physical condition.

Massage therapy for a long time now has been successful and effective in releasing bad thoughts and feelings from our body to enlighten us both physically and emotionally. Tibetan Point Holding is one of the many forms of bodywork that are created and developed for the purpose of releasing stress, fatigue, and tension in our mind and body. Not only is the therapy great for soothing and calming the patient, it is also helpful in treating and conditioning the body to promote healing and rejuvenation.

Practitioners of Tibetan point holding massage believe in the interconnection of the emotions and the physical body. The idea in this type of massage is to improve the health using the release of strong and painful emotions from the client s body. Sessions of this treatment usually requires more than one therapist to perform the point holding techniques. A regular number of five therapists are present in such therapy sessions in order for the client to receive the proper treatment and full benefits of the medical care. Each of the therapists holds a respective point in the various meridians of the human body and simultaneously releases the holding technique. Acupressure principles and techniques are used to achieve the purpose of soothing tensed muscles as well as the releasing of painful emotions that causes problems in our physical body. The holding may last for several minutes depending on the medical needs and health issues of the client. It may vary from one person to the other as there is no standard duration in Tibetan point holding as to how long each press and hold techniques should last. The session may last up to two hours depending on the physical evaluation conducted to the patient at the beginning of the therapy.

Unlike other forms of bodywork, Tibetan point holding massage doesn t involve or require its therapist to undergo certification in order to be an approved therapist in this field of massage therapy. However, anyone who wishes to learn this therapeutic massage technique can take courses that are offered within four to five weeks. After those weeks of intensive training and learning of the point holding methods and techniques, the practitioner is ready to perform what he or she has learned. It only shows that the methods used are easy to understand and learn in quite a shorter period of time as compared to the other types of therapies that requires lengthy education and experience, especially the need for certification.
