Tui Na Massage
Massage may be the oldest method of healing known to man. It is perhaps one of our most basic human instincts to place our hands on areas of our body that bother us, and the laying of hands to provide comfort is part of our basic social behaviors.
Tui Na is a system of medical massage and bodywork that developed in conjunction with acupuncture to alleviate pain and dysfunction. While considered a bit more “aggressive” and forceful than some other types of massage, Tui Na is uniquely effective in treating pain and injury. Techniques range from basic bodywork to advanced skeletal manipulation similar to Western Chiropractic. Tui Na is often used in China as part of physical rehabilitation from injury as well as recovery from severe conditions like strokes and traumatic paralysis.
