1259.0. "Accupressure Courses?" by WAV12::VOTAVA () Mon May 14 1990 17:27

    It has been suggested to me that I study accupressure to accent my Reki
    ability.  Does anyone know where there are good courses offered in
    accupressure?  I will be moving to the Jamaica Plain area and would be
    interested in anything near there (or anywhere, actually).
    
    Any good books that you may suggest would also be appreciated.
    
    Thanks in advance.....
    
    Peace,

    There's a Natural Food store called Arborway Natural foods in J.P. that
    you could check in to see if they have any notices posted. They may
    have a book section to browse as well.

re: .0

  There is a pretty descriptive book titled _The Book of Massage_
that covers massage, acupressure (Shiatsu) and reflexology.  It is 
probably a good starting point.  

   Hey Frederick, you in here?  I'm sure you could lend some advice.

    I'll check it out (i.e. Arborway,"The Book of Massage")

    re: .2 (Terry)
    
          Yeah, I'm everywhere (that I want to be.)  ;-)
    
          I've had some training in this, but don't know any specialists,
    at the moment, individuals or schools...and besides, I'm in the
    state of California, where everyone walks on coals, don't you know. 
    ;-)
    
          You may check out the CLO::MASSAGE notesfile.  Someone in there
    may have more knowledge.

1259.5I'll be putting info in massage after I've got it allCARTUN::MISTOVICHTue May 15 1990 13:1510
    Bancroft School in Worcester offers it, but days only.  I've asked them
    if they're planning on offering it evenings/weekends in the future, but 
    so far no plans.  They will need enough requests.  
    
    I'm looking into some other schools, including New Hampshire Inst for
    Therapeutic Arts (Hudson, NH), New England Shiatsu Center (Boston), and 
    New England Inst of Massage and the Muscular Therapy Institue (both in
    Cambridge).

1259.6NE Shiatsu Center - BostonICS::REEDA laugh a day keeps the blues awayTue May 15 1990 19:4814
    
    Lisa, I got a brochure from the New England Shiatsu Center.  The
    address is 295 Huntington Ave.  Rm 205  Boston, MA 02115  (617)
    236-2286.  Last year they offered a summer intensive as well as special
    classes in the spring/summer.  I haven't been there yet.
    
    I have taken the intesive weekend study and an 8 week workshop at
    the Muscle Therapy Institute in Cambridge.  They were GREAT!!  I've
    narrowed my choices down to MTI and Bancroft (Worcester).
    
    Where did you get your Reiki training?

1259.7Thanks, it's so conVEEEEnient!WAV14::VOTAVAWed May 16 1990 11:0317
    Thanks, Roslyn, the NE Shiatsu Center would be a perfect location for
    me (right on the #39 bus from my new home).  Although I do intend to
    check out MTI.  
    
    I received my training from John Harvey Gray.  He learned from Takata.
    I did write more info about him in CLO::MASSAGE note # 40.1 if you are
    interested in checking it out.  You would be quite welcome at the Reiki
    Wellness Center.
    
    Please feel free to write or call me offline, if you want to talk about
    all this fun stuff.  I am always interested in talking about these
    subjects.
    
    Peace,
