On a physical level Cathar Yoga activates and stretches the energy lines known as meridians and realigns the body. To do this, we begin by re-learning how to stand, sit, kneel, lie down, and incorporate poses from Makko Ho and Hatha Yoga. Cathar Yoga utilizes the Ma Roller and is a yoga of transformation and humility bringing us to our most basic physical levels so we can improve from a strong foundation. Only from here can we be truly healed and educated in our body's workings and needs. Cathar Yoga heals and prevents injuries. Shiatsu & Esoteric HealingShiatsu is a pressure-point technique developed in Japan over 1000's of years ago. Fingers, hands, elbows, and even bare-foot pressure is applied to specific points on the body to stimulate and unclog meridians. A range of pressures are used. Each treatment starts with a Hara Diagnosis (the internal center of gravity) and Hara Treatment. The chi is re-directed and stimulated so that the intelligence of the body can take over the healing process. As hands are used insted of needles or other tools, the healer is able to move with the client's energy (chi flow); sometimes staying in one place for 20 seconds or 2 hours. Shiatsu is a reconstructive process not a simple massage. The MA RollerCreated in the 1970's by Ramana, an acupuncturist, the MA Roller is a piece of wood about the size of a rolling pin. Originally created solely for lying upon, Catherine created Cathar Yoga for the expanded use of the MA Roller for a greater efficency of Hatha Yoga and Makko Ho. Finger SurgeryAs traditional Shiatsu functions with treating of pressure points, I have coined the term 'finger surgery' as a means of further separating and restructuring the space within the body. Using fingers, the muscles, ligaments, and bones are separated so that they may return to their original shape, reintegrate with the body, and resume their proper functions, and I am able to go deeper and with more sensitivity than otherwise with needs ir tools. This is one of the primary factors for rebuilding the chi flow of the body in a more permanent fashion.
