Shoni-Shin Tool Kit

Description

Shoni-Shin is a non-invasive, cutaneous technique to stimulate the meridian system using lightweight hand tools. Developed in Japan over 300 years ago, Shoni-Shin uses rhythmic tapping and superficial scrapping along the meridian pathways to encourage Qi flow. The term Shoni-Shin means "Little Person Needle," and this system is used frequently in the treatment of pediatric patients or wherever a gentler touch is indicated, as the sensation is novel and mild. This unique tool kit is great for those who employ Japanese acupuncture techniques, facial rejuvenation systems, or specialize in pediatrics and other special populations. Care Instructions: Sanitize tools in an appropriate disinfectant in between patients.
