Chinese Massage (Tuina)

Diverse forms of massage aid in circulation, relax the muscles, and help the body recover from stress and injury. All layers of the body may be moved and healed through manual techniques. Traditional Chinese massage is called Tuina. Based on the body systems of Chinese medicine, Tuina may treat the same conditions that can be treated with acupuncture. The word Tuina means “pushing-grasping,” which conveys how its techniques stimulate the body. This time-tested healing form is particularly useful in alleviating musculo-skeletal complaints.
