Service Description

Tuina (pronounced "twee-nah") is a form of therapeutic massage that comes from traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). It focuses on applying pressure, kneading, rolling, and stretching to specific areas of the body to promote the flow of qi (energy) and blood. The goal is to restore balance to the body's systems, alleviate pain, and encourage healing. Unlike other types of massage, Tuina is typically more focused on addressing specific health conditions, often using techniques that target acupuncture points or meridians (the energy pathways in the body). It can be used to treat a wide range of conditions, such as muscle pain, joint issues, stress, digestive problems, and even some respiratory conditions. Healing Tuina massage combines Tuina techniques with a focus on holistic healing. Practitioners will often assess your body and energy flow, and adjust their approach accordingly, integrating elements like acupressure, stretching, and manipulation to help balance your body’s energy and enhance your overall wellbeing. It’s quite different from standard relaxation massage, as it's more targeted and therapeutic. Many people find it useful for chronic pain relief or when dealing with specific musculoskeletal issues.
