Makiko Domen - Bio
Makiko (photo above) is a yogi and practitioner of Biwa Kyu therapy.
She studied and graduated from the Buddhist Medicine School of Japan.
In Japan she was teaching yoga and practicing the art of Biwa Kyu therapy
to help heal people on the level of the body and the heart. Makiko’s
yoga practice is strongly connected to her Biwa Kyu therapy. She feels
like it brings life into balance and brings health and peace to Earth.
Makiko now lives on the beautiful island of Bali, Indonesia. Here she
has a strong connection to the Natures energy. She lives at the Ninth
House (photo below) surrounded by rice fields, with a Balinese family
just north of the small town of Ubud. This is a wonderful place for her
to offer her therapy because of the tranquility and harmonious spiritual
life of the Balinese people.
The body has the power to heal it’s self. Biwa Kyu helps stimulate
the body to initiate that self healing process and it boosts the immune
system. This makes for a faster recovery from just about any illness.
A Biwa Kyu session lasts from 1 to 2 hours and is done wile the patient
is laying down. A gentile heat is applied to specific acupressure points.
This is done using a special device that controls the heat and distributes
the essence of the Loquat herb. The sessions are very relaxing, healing
and stress reducing.

Loquat Moxibustion Therapy – A 2500-year-old
treatment that began with the Buddha
Over 2,500 years ago the Buddha began his mission of relieving suffering
and sickness. In his teachings he reffered to the loquat tree as the “Medicine
King” and its leaves as a “fan that blows away sorrows.”
The loquat, he said, has the power to save.
When Buddhism was introduced to China, loquat therapy was incorporated
with the local arts of acupuncture, moxibustion and herbal medicine treatment.
In the mid-6th century Buddhism and Buddhist medicine arrived in Japan
where this ancient system of therapy has been preserved.
This therapy acts quickly to improve circulation of the blood and chi
– the obstruction of which is a main cause of many of today’s
diseases. We recommend a combination of therapies aimed at eliminating
circulation impediments through the use of new developments in loquat
leaf therapy and the theories of acupuncture and moxibustion.
New developments in technology have greatly increased te effectiveness
of loquat moxibustion, shortened therapy time, and eliminated pain and
scarring from burns.
1) Heat-Pressure Effect
The application of heat and finger pressure to certain parts of the body
is a basic technique of shiatsu treatment. This results in improved blood
circulation and stimulates the pressure points, enhancing the body’s
natural healing abilities.
2) Moxibustion Effect
Since ancient times wormwood has been used in the practice of moxibustion.
Only from wormwood are the heat rays and vapors essential to the treatment
process generated. Through our patented process we have created a special
high-pressure moxa which significantly enhances the desirable effects
of this wonderful material, while eliminating the pain and risk of burning
the skin. Best results can be obtained by applying our new moxa to only
a few of the body’s strategic points.
3) Loquat Essence Effect
According to the sutras, the Buddha once praised the healing properties
of the loquat and its power to save. Modern medicine has proven that loquat
does, in fact, have curative medicinal qualities. Through our research
we have produced a concentrated loquat essence to which we have added
ethanol to facilitate the skin’s absorption of the essence. The
use of Biwakyu will certainly demonstrate the cleansing power it has on
the blood as well as its power to assist your natural healing abilities.
4) Antiseptic Effect
Biwakyu acts as a complete antiseptic owing to the ingredients all contained
in our product – ethanol, loquat essence, wormwood essence in vapor
form, and the heat of the burning moxa. Biwakyu can be used as a general
treatment of skin problems.
5) Lowering of body temperature
While using Biwakyu the surface temperature of the skin can increase by
as much as 60 degrees Celsius. Immediately after removing the moxa, the
temperature will decrease 40 to 50 because of the vaporizing effect. It
has this cooling effect which stimulates the flow of chi and blood while
also stimulating the nervous system – all of which contributes to
healing.
6)
Stimulation of the Pressure Site
Inside the rubber section of the Biwakyu Injection-Form Device used to
place the moxa on the skin, is a hollow cylinder. Place the top of the
device on the site to be treated. When the piston is pressed, the congested
area under the skin returns to its normal condition. The way it works
is this: air pressure on the outside of the device forces the congested
area up inside the cylinder inflating the blocked veins and normalizing
the circulation of the blood. This simple procedure not only immediately
relieves congestion, but acts to purify the blood and enhance your body’s
natural healing powers.
7) The Yin and Yang Effect
Good health is maintained when the positive Yin and negative Yang energies
are in the correct balance. Accordingly, the illness and disease indicate
an imbalance or disturbance in the yin-yang energies. Biwakyu is very
effective in bringing the two powers back into harmony through the simultaneous
loquat essence effect (yin) and the moxa effect (yang). This treatment
based on the theory of the balance of bionic energies has long been known
and practiced in Buddhist medicine.
The use of two sets of Biwakyu in conjunction with the Uchinuki technique
of moxibustion can lead to immediate relief of pain from cancer and balances
the energies of the body, restores normal circulation of the chi and blood,
and enhances the natural healing abilities of the body.
