Randall Johnson: A Dedicated Practitioner of Seitai Shinpo & Sotai Ho

At the heart of our clinic is Randall Johnson, LAc, a certified Seitai Shinpo acupuncturist, who approaches each patient with a profound understanding of the interconnectedness between the mind, body, and spirit. Randall's journey to acupuncture began with a personal experience where he witnessed the transformative power of this ancient healing art firsthand. Initially skeptical, his own positive results ignited a passion within him to learn more and dedicate his life to helping others reap the same benefits.

Randall received his undergraduate education at Ripon College in Wisconsin, where he cultivated a deep interest in science and philosophy. However, his true calling led him down a different path. He pursued his Master of Science in Oriental Medicine at the Traditional Chinese Medical College of Hawaii, immersing himself in the rich traditions of Eastern medicine. During his studies, he crossed paths with Dr. Chieko Maekawa, a renowned master in Seitai Shinpo acupuncture, a unique Japanese style of acupuncture known for its specific point selection and gentle techniques.

Randall's meticulous training encompasses not only rigorous academic study but also extensive clinical experience under the guidance of Dr. Maekawa. This personalized mentorship has allowed him to refine his skills and develop a compassionate and intuitive approach to patient care. We are proud to be one of the few clinics in the mainland USA offering this profound and effective style of acupuncture.

About Setai Shinpo

Setai Shinpo is a unique Japanese style of acupuncture renowned for its subtle and precise techniques. This ancient practice emphasizes the delicate balance of the body's energy system (Qi) and its connection to the nervous system.

What sets Seitai Shinpo apart is its use of specific points along the body's meridians, focusing on gently stimulating and releasing energy blockages. This approach stimulates the body's natural healing processes, promoting overall well-being and addressing a wide range of health concerns. Unlike many conventional acupuncture styles, Seitai Shinpo utilizes a lighter touch, minimizing discomfort and allowing for a more comfortable experience.

Beyond Acupuncture: Sotai Ho - Movement Therapy

Comhancing the benefits of Seitai Shinpo is the integration of Sotai Ho, a unique form of movement therapy developed in Japan. Sotai Ho involves gentle, flowing movements guided by a qualified practitioner, addressing postural imbalances and restoring optimal muscle function. These movements, often compared to tai chi or yoga, promote blood circulation, improve flexibility, and release tension throughout the body.

By incorporating Sotai Ho into the treatment plan, Randall addresses not only the energetic aspects of your condition but also your physical well-being, fostering a holistic approach to healing.
