Dr. Val Nardo Unveils his Innovative Guide for Integrating Energy Work with conventional Deep Tissue Massage in New Book "JIN MO QI GONG"

Birmingham, Alabama - August 2024-Well respected massage practitioner and educator, Dr. Val Nardo, LMT, M.Ed., Ph.D., proudly announces the release of his new book, JIN MO QI GONG, a transformative guide that offers an innovative approach to deep tissue massage by blending the principles of fascia, energy work, and body core balance. Drawing on nearly two decades of experience as a massage educator/practioner and over 200 hours of advanced training in various massage disciplines, Dr. Nardo's book is a comprehensive resource for both seasoned massage therapists and those seeking alternative techniques to enhance positive therapeutic outcomes.
JIN MO QI GONG is the culmination of more than seven years of research, practice, and seminar presentations across the United States. Dr. Nardo first began exploring the intersection of fascia and energy in 2007, leading to the development of his signature approach, Jin Mo Qi Gong-an alternative technique to deep tissue massage that emphasizes working with the body's fascia and energy system while minimizing the risk of injury to both practitioners and clients.
"Deep tissue massage has often been misunderstood as requiring excessive pressure and causing pain and potential injury to patient/client, as well as, the practitioner, sometimes ending a career due to injury. My goal with JIN MO QI GONG is to present an approach that is safe, effective, and respects the body's natural energy flow," says Dr. Nardo. "This book is not just about massage; it's about a deeper understanding of how the body heals itself and how we as practitioners can help facilitate that process."
Dr. Nardo's career spans over 14 years as a licensed massage therapist (LMT) and a nationally board- certified educator with the NCBTMB. He also served as a Certified Vocational Rehabilitation Counselor and as a Court Vocational Expert Witness for over 30 years. His extensive experience in both hands-on practice, counseling, consultation and education has shaped the content of JIN MO QI GONG, making it an essential read for anyone interested in natural health practices.
The book details how Jin Mo Qi Gong integrates deep tissue concepts with the concepts from Traditional Chinese Medicine, including the use of Qi (life force) and the importance of fascia in maintaining the body's functional efficiency. Dr. Nardo also provides practical, illustrated applications and step-by-step guidance for incorporating this method into therapeutic practice. The book's insights extend beyond massage therapy to encompass broader wellness principles applicable to all healthcare professionals.

JIN MO QI GONG includes:
A detailed exploration of fascia and its role with the body's energy system.
Applications to work deeply without causing pain and injury, allowing for safe and effective results.
Suggestions and encouragement on how to integrate Jin Mo Qi Gong into various therapeutic modalities.
Insights into the practice of Qi Gong and how it supports the natural health process.
Dr. Nardo's innovative approach is designed to empower therapists to offer their clients a more holistic and integrated experience. As a Reiki master and Qi Gong instructor, Dr. Nardo's vision extends to helping practitioners achieve longevity in their careers by avoiding injuries common in deep tissue practices.
JIN MO QI GONG is available for purchase in print and digital formats starting this month. For more information about the book, upcoming events, and other related information, visit. WWW.JINMOQIGONG.COM
