Jin Shin Jyutsu for skin problems
There are many times when our largest organ, the skin, needs help. Fortunately, we have a special energy built into our being that benefits our entire skin, from the top of our head to the soles of our feet. Even better, we can practice a wonderful Jin Shin Jyutsu self-help hold to support and nurture our skin.

Tried and tested in many situations:
Backs of thighs burning up
One night in winter, I felt the backs of my thighs burning up and I couldn’t understand why. Then, I realised that I’d sat down somewhere very cold and my skin was suffering a bit from frostbite! It was really quite sore – so I decided to go to bed and do this hold. After a while I fell asleep, and the next morning there was no sign of any discomfort or discolouration of the skin.
Jellyfish stings – ouch!
Another time I was on holiday in Spain, and I got stung badly by the tentacles of jellyfish floating in the water. Again on the backs of my thighs. Large red welts appeared with a painful burning sensation. Luckily, I knew about this self help hold so I was able to apply it immediately, and the burning subsided quite quickly. Within a day all the redness had disappeared and there was no scarring.
Red blotch on the face
Another situation occurred when an angry red blotch developed on my face. I decided not to wait until I could see a dermatologist, so I practiced the Jin Shin Jyutsu hold for the skin below for a couple of nights in front of the TV. It amazed me how much better it was: there was hardly any redness!
