Dô-In is a Japanese technique that came from China under the name Tao-In. Dao or Dô comes from Tao, the way. In means to assimilate, to receive, to let oneself be led. Dô-In is both a science and an art.

It is close to acupuncture, very close to shiatsu massage (shi = pressure and atsu = finger) and to digipuncture (acupuncture without needles). But its distinctive feature is that it does not require in-depth knowledge of energy. It carries no danger, no risk.

Dô-In works with the energy circuits by drawing on two types of meridians: the Yang meridians, which come from the sky, concern "the harder parts of the body", while the Yin meridians, which come from the earth, concern "the softer parts of the body". The exercises presented here aim to offer simple and beneficial gestures to improve your health.

Body areas involved: mainly the face, eyes, nose, cheeks, ears, head, nape, throat, shoulders, arms, hands, chest, stomach, kidneys, thighs, knees, legs, feet and back.

Use of the hands and thumb: the hands are used for stroking, firmer massage and tapping. The thumb is used for pressure — either as static pressure or with a light circular motion, in one direction, the other, or in a figure of eight.
