| Tuina Massage |
 |
Tuina Massage is a traditional Chinese massage utilising finger and elbow pressure, grasping, stretching, rolling, kneading and rubbing to stimulate the body. Tuina means ‘push and grasp’ and can be used to treat specific conditions following the same theory as Acupuncture, or as a general massage to promote well-being and relaxation.
Whilst it is a relatively new therapy to the West, Tuina was first used in China during the Han Dynasty 2,000 years ago. It is widely used today throughout China where all major hospitals have a Tuina department; it is also the Chinese medicine treatment of choice for children.
Tuina practitioners work on the principle of balancing the Yin and Yang of the body by working along energy pathways (meridians) and specific areas of the body. The diagnosis and theory behind Tuina is the same as that used to select acupuncture points. A Tuina session is tailored to your individual constitution and energy flow to make it a unique and revitalising experience.
Tuina Massage will improve circulation, relax muscles, ease chronic pain, calm the nervous system and promote self-healing. By working on the energy (or Qi) level it is effective at treating the underlying cause and can benefit conditions such as headache, anxiety, insomnia, digestive disorders, circulatory and gynaecological problems.
