Jignesh Gokani and his team are offering voluntary pain reliving services; ‘Sujok’—a Korean healing practice at the expo
A visit to the Numaish is often tiring what with walking for long distances holding heavy bags filled with goodies you shop there. To address the painful issue, Jignesh Gokani and his team are offering voluntary pain reliving services.
The Sujok Therapy stall, next to the Exhibition Society building is a pain management centre to help visitors, stall owners, police personnel and anyone who visits them, relief from pain in three seconds or a maximum of three minutes—what’s more? All this is offered for free!
‘Sujok’, a Korean healing practice, involves activating pressure points in one’s hands and feet. It was invented by Korean philosopher Prof Park Jae Woo and is now practiced in over 50 countries.
Jignesh Gokani, who has been practicing Sujok since 1999, says, “Ligaments can be fixed without drugs and that is the beauty of Sujok.” Su means part of hand (palm) and Jok means part of leg (sole). Jignesh explains, “The palm represents the human body.
The index and the little finger are the arms; the tall one and the ring finger are limbs and the thumb is the head. If there is a problem in the hand, there is a corresponding point in the body. We release the energy from that area. That ball has the capacity to change the pathology and solve the problem.”
On an average, about 100- 120 people visit the pain management centre. Janardhan Reddy, a member of the Exhibition Society, who met with an accident which resulted in his left leg being shortened by one-and-a-half inches, says, “I first visited the stall last year and if I am walking without pain it is due to Sujok.”
Several visitors to the exhibition visit the centre after walking for long distances and get relief. Shaheeda, a visitor, said, “My knee was hurting and after I spent just a few minutes at the centre the pain vanished. I have decided to go for long-term therapy.”
