Karuna Do was born in March 2014 with the successful fusion of two work styles. The style practiced by Laia Rus, based on body therapies with a strong psycho-neuro-emotional conditioning, and the methodology employed by Francesc Torrent, based on the Kosa system (Saahm Korean Orthodox Acupuncture). The combination of the various complementary techniques of each of the indicated methods converge in many aspects, while also diverging. However, the union of both techniques means that therapeutic possibilities are achieved that, by themselves, the two systems could not achieve without each other. This is the main premise of Karuna Do.
The physical space where the activity takes place, located in the Les Corts neighborhood of Barcelona, was conceived as a versatile place. The Japanese word Karuna is an ad hoc translation of the Tibetan word rning RJE, the meaning in Castilian means “compassion.” On the other hand, the Korean word Do (in Chinese Tao) literally means “way.” And it is that the strength of Karuna Do lies in this integration, given that the establishment is prepared to host all kinds of therapists and instructors who can provide an effective and interesting service. In this way and by natural selection, the current Karuna Do team has been established. Indeed, composed of its initiators Laia Rus and Francesc Torrent, two Masters of Tai Chi / Chi Kung, three Yoga instructors Hatha Vinyasa, and a homeopath expert in floral therapy. In addition, two of the people said are Reiki Masters.
The services offered to Karuna Do focus on the area of healing. For all this, it makes them always taxable of a deep knowledge of the reality of each patient, which requires an initial interview, the correct development of the therapy, and in which the contribution of the necessary medical data is requested, in order to be able to complete a correct history of your history and thus be able to apply the treatment that is necessary.
The development of the treatment involves the realization of a certain number of sessions and their courtship by the therapist who takes the case.
The pathologies treated to Karuna Do cover a wide spectrum of diseases, energy dysfunctions, biochemical-mechanical imbalances, emotional problems, psycho-neuro-emotional disorders, etc. A multitude of pathologies cataloged in a hierarchy of lesser to greater severity. At Karuna Do, problems of all pathological levels are treated.
