Ki Flow

When the Ki Flows, life thrives!

Shiatsu treats beyond the physical body and brings together a rich tapestry of Eastern philosophical concepts to support a holistic approach to wellbeing.

Ki or Qi (pronounced Chee) is the everflowing life force energy, inherent in all things.

In Shiatsu, Ki represents the underlying force that creates change and movement.

When Ki is abundant, there is balance, harmony, and vitality.

If the flow is obstructed, different symptoms begin to manifest.

Και ο εγκέφαλος παράγει ινσουλινη !!!!???? Φέρεται ότι ο τύπος αυτός ινσουκινης συνδέεται με τον μεταβολισμο, το γήρας και τη γνωστική μας δυνατότητα, και λιγότερο με τον σακχαρώδη διαβήτη.

🔬🧠 Brain Makes Its Own Insulin?! Groundbreaking Discovery Redefines Diabetes & Alzheimer’s Research

Forget what you learned in biology class the brain also makes insulin! 🧪

For decades, insulin was thought to be the exclusive domain of the pancreas. But new research reveals that brain cells like neurogliaform cells and stress-sensing neurons independently produce insulin especially in regions tied to memory, appetite, and growth.

📍 Notably, the choroid plexus (which produces brain fluid) releases insulin that can reprogram how the hypothalamus regulates hunger.

🧠 Unlike pancreatic insulin, this brain-made hormone isn’t about blood sugar — it’s critical for cognition, aging, and metabolic health within the brain.

Why it matters:
This breakthrough may explain why Alzheimer’s is called “Type 3 Diabetes” — a condition where the brain stops responding to insulin. 💡

With brain insulin tied to appetite, memory loss, and neurodegeneration, we may be looking at a revolution in how we treat both metabolic and brain disorders.
