healing space
A Healing Place
The healing space was conceived to provide alternative healing practices
to the community. The space has offered different services in the
past, including counseling as to diet and herbs and classes in movement
and meditation. Once a new location is located, we will continue
to offer opportunities for and education in healing practices. Until
that time, we offer information from, and links to, area practitioners. We
believe that health is not merely the absence of illness but is a practice
and philosophy of daily life. Be well!

Description: Qigong warm-ups and Yang Style Tai Chi Chuan will be the main focus of these classes, which have a breath-centered accent. Classes will be ongoing and built around warm-ups and the form itself. There are 124 movements that compose the “dance” of Tai Chi; it takes about a year to learn, 40-50 minutes to practice, and the rest of a student’s life to “get it right.” This class is open to people of all ages. For more information on Dae’s classes, visit Dae’s Tai Chi page at mv-tai-chi@googlegroups.com; for more general information, see our Tai Chi page.

Contact: Scott ‘Dae’ Anderson at 315-735-5837
Description: “Acupressure” is a traditional
Chinese medicine bodywork technique based on the same ideas as acupuncture. It
involves placing physical pressure on different pressure points on the surface
of the body (related to what is called the meridian system) to bring about relief
through greater balance and circulation of energies in the body (chi). Some
possible areas of treatment are: back pain, migraines, neck injuries,
reduced mobility, menstrual pain, digestive issues, asthmatic symptoms, sports
and other injuries, depression, insomnia and stress relief.
