Tui Na massage is a Chinese alternative medicine similar to Shiatsu with a range of techniques and indications forming a system for manual therapeutics. It combines the names of the hand techniques for ‘tui’ meaning to push and ‘na’ meaning to lift and squeeze and involves a range of full body stretches and hand movements. Stimulation of the acupoints (energy channels) is done by using knuckles, palms, fingers and thumbs to target key muscle groups range from light and soothing to strong and invigorating. Tuina massage is vigorous and involves quite a lot of kneading, rubbing and manipulation to ease muscle tension, stimulate blood flow and clear blockages and stagnation of Qi.
The massage treatment is usually performed dry with a towel between you and the therapist without the use of oils. The movements are fast and the massage of acupuncture points can be vigorous at times so be prepared as it may feel strange to those who are not familiar with Tuina massage therapy at first.
Tuina massage is a powerful therapeutic tool for a number of various acute and chronic conditions. All musculoskeletal issues can be treated with Tui Na massage as well as various internal conditions like digestive, circulatory and respiratory conditions. In fact, according to Chinese Mweicine Tui Na massage can be a regular part of a treatment plan for a number of various acute and chronic conditions such as lower back pain, headache, insomnia, constipation, vertigo, prostatitis, asthma, frozen shoulder, irregular menstruation, simple obesity, toothache and many more. Tuina massage is also very effective treatment for sports injuries and a perfect massage for rehabilitation. After treatment you should feel rejuvenated and any symptoms should be alleviated considerably.
