Tuina
Chinese massage therapy (tui na)
Tui na, bodywork therapy, was developed in China over 5,000 years ago. Similar to acupuncture, tui na works with the system of meridians and pressure points to balance the Qi energy of the patient and bring about a balanced state of health. Unlike acupuncture, with tui na no needles are used. The work is done entirely with the therapist's hands to help increase the flow of Qi through the meridian system. Most patients find tui na very relaxing. It is often combined with acupuncture to relax the patient and increase circulation.
