Ben Rosen
LMT
Licensed Massage Therapist
Ben has spent the last 10 years learning Tuina massage and Clinical Qigong from the Jing Dong Gong Stillness Movement lineage. An heirloom system of Chinese healing that focuses on using the practitioner's cultivated Qi energy to influence a client's body for healing. Ben trained for a month in Tibet offering his massage services at a traditional healing hospital and learning Tibetan medicine.
Tuina includes deep tissue techniques, vibration and shaking methods as well as intuitive point acupressure. Clinical Qigong also known as Wai Qi Liao Fa which means healing with external energy makes use of both on and off body methods of energetic manipulation. Both Tuina and Clinical Qigong excel as therapies for pain relief, internal organ balancing and achieving overall balance within the body.
Ben teaches Qigong meditation classes from the Stillness Movement lineage locally here in Portland. Classes are available every month if interested. Ben also is a practicing Chinese herbalist specializing in Chinese tonic herbalism. Ben has a love for tea and can often be found drinking cups with a friend or taking his tea set out to a river in nature. At home his hands are often in the soil planting medicinal plants in his garden.
