Introduction: My work is strictly based on the core principles found in a combination of Asian Massage modalities, including Thai Massage, Shiatsu & Tui-Na. It is the basis and root of the type of therapy I offer. It demands strict mental discipline from the practitioner/therapist in order to be centered, 'in the moment', attentive & deliver the best possible care based on individual needs. It is the first & foremost definition of Mindful Metal.
That being said, in order to achieve focus, be mindful, & work from the Hara (human energetic core in Japanese culture), certain tones & sounds are used to create an ambiance that allows & facilitates the therapeutic application of Zen. In the case of MIndful Metal, certain sub genres of heavy metal, rock or nature sounds are used to achieve this purpose.
