Kunye Massage Certification Program

Sun, Sep 25 2011 10:42 | Permalink

Beginning in the Spring of 2012, the Shang Shung Institute School of Tibetan Medicine will launch a new 750-hour Tibetan Kunye Massage Therapy Comprehensive Certification Program. This program is the most advanced training in traditional Kunye Massage Therapy currently offered anywhere in the US or abroad. The program prepares students for professional practice, and meets the new curriculum guidelines established by the Massachusetts State Board of Registration of Massage Therapy. The program features foundation study in the core principles and theory of Tibetan Medicine, methodological training in Kunye massage & gentle external therapies, extensive hands-on practice, and preparation to employ these skills in the modern professional workplace.

Classes and supervised clinical practice will be conveniently located in our new Florence, Ma space at 140 Pine St., Room 10. Class hours will take place on nights and weekends.

What is Kunye Therapy?

Kunye Therapy is the system of massage and gentle external therapies taught in the ancient lineage of traditional Tibetan Medicine. Kunye Massage includes techniques such as applying herbal-infused oils to the body, manual tissue manipulation, deep tissue work, identifying & acting on specific points, mobilizing the joints, and warming the body. Kunye also includes gentle external therapies such as hot and cold compresses, herbal poultices, and application of heated oils.
The therapeutic treatments of Kunye can be applied to the entire body, utilizing proper draping and positioning of the client. Kunye is performed on a raised massage table, or seated on a massage chair, depending on the comfort and condition of the client.
Kunye Therapy has been employed by Tibetan physicians and yogins for many centuries. It is one of the most ancient systems of massage in the world, and an important component of traditional Tibetan Medicine.

What Are the Benefits?

The function of Kunye Therapy is to help balance the systems of the body, relax tensions, and revitalize the energy. For many centuries, Kunye Therapy has been applied to relieve muscular and joint pain, mobilize the joints, reduce stiffness, balance the neurological system, rejuvenate coarse and dry skin, alleviate the symptoms of mental and physical stress, anxiety, depression, grief, insomnia, constipation, and support the healthy function of digestion.

About the Program

The Shang Shung Institute regularly offers public seminars in traditional Kunye Therapy around the world. Kunye is also incorporated into the curriculum of the Four-year Program in Tibetan Medicine. In response to growing interest in the benefits of Kunye Therapy and enthusiasm for our public courses, the Shang Shung Institute now offers the 750-hour Comprehensive Certification Program designed to train students in the ancient healing science of Kunye, and prepare them to practice in the modern professional workplace.
The curriculum consists of 750-hours over three semesters. Upon completion of the program, graduates may apply to the Board of Registration of Massage Therapy for licensure as massage therapists in the state of Massachusetts or other states.
The program will focus on the following topics of theoretical study and practical application:

Advice for Health and Long Life: Helpful Tips from the Heart of the Medicine Buddha

Mon, Aug 22 2011 04:07 | Advice for Health and Long Life | Permalink

In the classical Tibetan Medicine Texts (Gyud Zhi), the wise and compassionate Medicine Buddha, known as "The Great Sage", instructs his students on the proper diet, lifestyle, medicines and therapies to promote long life, health, and happiness.

Considerations for the Autumn Season:

The changing seasons can influence our health. The reason for this is related with the Five Elements, both inside our bodies and in external conditions. As the elemental qualities of the seasons shift, for example from dry to rainy, or warm to cool, this affects the balance of elements within our bodies. Therefore, we should adjust our diet and lifestyle to be in harmony with the seasons.

As summer moves into autumn, there is an increase of the fire element. The weather is dry, the sun is hot, vegetation and crops are fully matured. This causes the arising of the tripa humor (bile) within our bodies. Arising tripa may increase symptoms such as headaches, heartburn, or diarrhea.

To balance the tripa humor in the autumn season, we should rely on cool-natured, sweet and bitter foods, such as fruits, fresh greens, and fresh milk. We should avoid spicy foods, greasy foods, and avoid drinking much alcohol. In the autumn it is healthy to accent one's clothes and living spaces with sweet, cooling fragrances, such as sandalwood, lavender, or fresh flowers.

Summer Greetings!

Dear Friends of the Shang Shung Institute,

This summer marks a season of great change for the Shang Shung
Institute US Branch. As many of you know, the US branch of the
Shang Shung Institute has seen great accomplishments over the
past 6 years. Thanks to the incredible perseverance and commitment
of the director of the Shang Shung Institute School of Tibetan Medicine,
Dr. Phuntsog Wangmo, the first graduating class of Western trained
Tibetan Doctors completed their training between 2005 and 2009.
After completing their internship and final examination at Qinghai
University and Hospital in Tibet, the graduates were awarded Menpa
(Tibetan Doctor) degrees from the University. We are delighted and
excited that in 2012 two more classes will travel to Qinghai for
internship and examination at the Qinghai University and Hospital in Tibet.

Another great achievement of the Shang Shung Institute over the past
few years has been the establishment of the Massachusetts state
licensure in massage therapy. Under the direction of Dr. Phuntsog
Wangmo, SSI offers now the most in-depth training in Tibetan Kunye
Massage Therapy in the West.

And yet, regardless of these incredible accomplishments, the Shang
Shung Institute and the School of Tibetan Medicine still have to
undergo a lot of development and adaptation in order to fulfill their
true potential.

SSI has recently made two big decisions to this end. Firstly, as of July
1st, SSI opened a new classroom and workshop space in Florence,
MA. In contrast to the Institute’s original Conway location, this new
space in Florence will provide a more central location for all SSI activities.
This was a necessary step to begin a 1.5 year Tibetan Kunye Massage
Certification Program in January of 2012. It will allow for both students
and the needed clientele for student clinical training to easily access the
school from the surrounding regions.

Secondly, for the time being SSI has decided to focus on creating better
online classes for all levels of interest, including the complete four-year
curriculum geared towards Menpa certification in Qinghai, Tibet. This
decision was made so that more people with various life circumstances
can more easily learn Tibetan Medicine. This new direction increases
the need for more collaboration with regional Tibetan healing centers
and regional practical trainings to supplement and integrate the online
theoretical material with real practical experience.

The foundation for all of these decisions rests on SSI’s goal of helping
create international standards and protection for Tibetan Medicine so
that it remains available for countless generations to benefit from. Our
long term goal is for SSI to become an International University in all
five sciences of Tibetan culture: the jewel of Tibetan culture is one that
must not be lost or diluted.

It is now vital, more than ever before, that SSI needs the dedicated support
of those who care about the future of Tibetan culture. It is in times of
change that community support is so crucial. In whatever way you can,
please help us all at SSI accomplish its great endeavors. If you are
interested in our programs, join them! If you have skills to offer the Institute,
use them!! If you have feedback for us to improve, tell us! If you represent
any organization that would like to work with us, let us know! And of course,
if you have any funds that you’d like to help us with the necessary
renovations for our new space, the much needed advertising for our new
massage program and to help us with our operating costs please see the
various options below.
Please also read below our "wish list" in case you may have specific skills
or supplies to offer.

Below you will also find information on all of our upcoming offerings.
Thank you all so much for your continued support. We wouldn’t exist
without you.

Sincerely,

The Shang Shung Institute US Branch Board and Staff

We have extended this fundraising effort for an additional 60 days to reach the $2500 matching goal!!! Our students rely on our internal scholarships and cannot recieve conventional financial aid. Please help the Tibetan Medicine students make it to graduation!!! Click here now to donate!

The American Branch of the Shang Shung Institute received another very generous offer from a friend with a long-time interest in Tibetan Medicine. This friend would like to help continue funding the Khenpo Tsenam Rinpoche Scholarship Fund for students of the School of Tibetan Medicine. The donor's businesses, JCROWS.com and the J. Crow Company look to support this very positive development in holistic health care by establishing the scholarship again this year for the 2011-2012 school year.

This donor has agreed to match donations to continue the School of Tibetan Medicine Scholarship fund, up to $2500, for a total of $5000 towards the continuation of the scholarship fund. We have added 60 more days to receive all donations towards the matching grant, so the deadline for all donations is: July 9, 2011.

We, and our students thank you immensely for your support of our program, and their studies!!
