In the Wikipedia® article on Jin Shin Do®, the definition of Jin Shin Do® must be changed to this standard definition, which is on the home page of www.jinshindo.org (and on all other Jin Shin Do® websites) & the ®s MUST be used: “Jin Shin Do” means “The Way of the Compassionate Spirit.” Jin Shin Do® Bodymind Acupressure® classes teach the use of gentle yet deep finger pressure on specific acu-points and verbal Body Focusing techniques, to help release "armoring" or chronic tension, balance the "Qi" or energy, and improve vitality. This clothes-on method helps relieve stress- and trauma-related problems. A unique synthesis of a traditional Japanese acupressure technique, classic Chinese acupuncture and acupressure theory, Taoist philosophy, Qigong (breathing and exercise techniques), Reichian segmental theory and principles of Ericksonian psychotherapy, it is recognized as a major form of Asian Bodywork Therapy (by NCCAOM® & AOBTA® among others). Originated by psychotherapist Iona Marsaa Teeguarden, Jin Shin Do® Acupressure promotes a pleasant trancelike state, in which one can relax and move out of the head and into the body, accessing feelings and inner wisdom.

Also, the REFERENCES should include: What is Jin Shin Do® Acupressure?: • English at www.jinshindo.org What are Meridians and Points? at www.jinshindo.org & the published books on Jin Shin Do® Acupressure by Iona Marsaa Teeguarden, which were originally published by Japan Publications: Acupressure Way of Health (© 1978), The Joy of Feeling: Bodymind Acupressure® (© 1987, 2003), A Complete Guide to Acupressure (©1996, Revised Edition © 2003).

Also, at the end of the Wikipedia® article on Jin Shin Do®, the link to the U.K. “HighTouch® Jin Shin Network” must be deleted because this organization has NOTHING to do with Jin Shin Do®.

Also, Jin Shin Do® is NOT medicine. Therefore, although we use touch to affect the energy system (including the points and meridians of acupuncture), Wikipedia is wrong to link their article on Jin Shin Do® in any way to “medicine,” including to "Energy Medicine," which is done through their "putative energy" link. Jin Shin Do® has nothing to do with “spiritual healing,” “contact healing,” “distance healing” or “faith healing.”

The Wikipedia® articles on (i.e. definitions of) Qi, meridian, acupressure and massage are partially wrong, too. I want to send Wikipedia a 5-page PDF explaining why and and giving easy ways to correct these articles. This PDF also explains in detail why the egregious article on (i.e. definition of) Jin Shin Do® must be changed. How can I send this PDF to you?
