Tui Na Massage

Tui Na (pronounced “tway nah“) is one of the external methods of Traditional Chinese Medicine. A 3000 year old form of Chinese deep tissue massage. Which stimulates the body’s meridians without inserting needles. It is especially suitable for use on the elderly population and on infants. The practitioner uses their hands to create a harmonious flow of Qi (vital energy) and blood through the patient’s body, releasing blockage an promoting health and vitality. Rather than a generalized massage, Tui Na treatments are customized based on the patient’s condition. The practitioner is able the tonify or reduce the patient with a variety of techniques such as kneading, grabbing, pushing, lifting, acupressure, and stretches are used to relax muscles, alleviate pain, restore joint alignment, and promote the healthy circulation of Qi and blood. Patients usually feel relaxed and energized at the same time from the treatment.
