The session usually ends with another Neck and Shoulder Release, some points along the central channel in the midline for centering, and some form of foot massage for grounding. Clients usually feel more relaxed and perhaps even energized after a session, or profoundly aware of what they need to enhance the balance. This could be such things as rest, water, time off, or better food. Anyone who can use their hands to apply firm yet gentle touch can do Jin Shin Do.

You can begin by reading any of the books mentioned in the Resources section. Of course, location of points is most effective when taught in a class or workshop by someone with experience.
