Ohashi Method® for a Healthy and Happy Pregnancy
In this three-day course Ohashi teaches through lecture and demonstration how
to help your clients through three important phases of life: Conception,
Pregnancy and Infant health.
Ohashi will teach each of these topics on specific days allowing students to have
the option of attending one, two, or all three days.
Developed over 50 years of experience and teaching – including his books
Natural Childbirth, The Eastern Way: A Healthy Pregnancy and Delivery Through Shiatsu
and Touch for Love: Shiatsu for Your Baby – this course will enhance your treatment
for clients looking to start a family.
The OHASHI Method® is an oriental medicine-based, physical method that
works on the meridians and acupressure points (tsubos) of the body. The
meridians and tsubos directly affect our inner organs to make them function
better, even influence our psychological states, and alleviate aches and pains.
On Friday,
the first day of the course, Ohashi will cover techniques to improve
and alleviate female problems related to:
● pain caused by menstruation,
● missed menstruation cycles
● emotional aspects of menstruation
The day will continue by discussing male and female reproductive function and
the meridians related to those functions and organs.
You’ll learn which exercises and techniques to suggest to your clients help their
goal of conception. Moxibustion or moxa (burned mugwort) will be demonstrated
by Ohashi so you can help your clients conceive.
If you have clients or friends who are trying to have a child, please bring them as
Ohashi’s guests to this day of the course. Please coordinate their visit with the
sponsor, Margarete Eller.
On Saturday,
Ohashi will cover techniques and exercises for improving the
experience of pregnancy for the woman: how you can decrease stress and fatigue
for your pregnant clients and how to alleviate discomfort during pregnancy, such as
morning sickness, lower backache, insomnia, and nausea. Ohashi will also discuss
what happens during labor and how to facilitate an easier delivery, including a
breech delivery. Ohashi also discusses ways to encourage the husband
to become an “OHASHI Method® Pregnancy Husband Personal Coach”.
Ohashi asks students to bring a pregnant woman — either your client or friend —
who is between 6 to 9 months pregnant as guests to this day of the course. Please
coordinate their visit with the sponsor, Margarete Eller.
On Sunday,

homologous, homo lateral and crosspattering movements. Also tsubo, meridian,
