Sendai Moxa and Onsen Retreat
Refresh and relax with a guided moxa self-treatment experience!
Select Application Method
Leave the big city to clear your mind in the beautiful Japanese countryside. Akiu area is close to downtown Sendai, less than one hour by bus or train from Sendai Station. We meet at Akiu Canada, a traditional Japanese inn/guest house owned by a freindly Canadian expat. In this session, you will learn what moxa is, how it is made, what meridian/acupuncture points, and other essential TCM terms such as Qi, Ketsu and Shin are. Afterwards, you will try self-moxa by yourself under my guidance. After self-moxa experience, you can enjoy a hot spring at the inn.
*For an additional fee, you can add an acupuncture/moxibustion/massage session.

Sendai TCM Lounge
I am a certified acupuncturist and lymphedema therapist. I have a national license of acupuncture, moxibustion, and shiatsu/massage and successfully obtained a certificate of lymphedema therapist including manual lymph drainage and complete decongestive therapy at Foeldi Klinik in Germany. I provide home-visit therapy sessions around Sendai. One program I offer is "Sendai Mindful Running Retreat." It is an opportunity to refresh the body and mind while running around the Akiu area which is full of beautiful nature. A vegetarian lunch and time to enjoy a hot spring is included in the itinerary.
