Summary
A health promotion specialist who uses manual techniques to balance the skeleton and muscles, improving pain and discomfort.
Description
Seitai Jutsu Practitioners are specialists who adjust the balance of the skeleton, muscles, and joints through manual techniques, alleviating body distortions and tension to enhance natural healing power. They identify the causes of discomfort through posture evaluation and palpation, and perform treatments by combining techniques such as myofascial release, stretching, and joint mobilization. They aim to improve autonomic nerves and blood flow, supporting the alleviation of symptoms such as low back pain, stiff shoulders, headaches, posture improvement, and enhancement of sports performance. They also provide self-care guidance after treatment and advice on lifestyle habits to achieve sustained health maintenance.
Future Outlook
Due to the aging population and increasing health consciousness, demand is on an upward trend. Amid intensifying competition among private qualification holders, differentiation through specialized techniques or remote treatments using ICT is required.
