TuiNa
TuiNa methods can include soft tissue manipulation and acupressure in conjunction with herbal ointments, liniments, and heat. The best part of the therapy is that it relaxes as well as energizes the person.
The main benefit of TuiNa is that it focuses on the specific problem, whether it is an acute or a chronic pain associated with the joints, muscles or a skeletal system. This technique is very beneficial in reducing the pain of neck, shoulders, hips, back, arms, highs, legs and ankle disorders. It is a very effective therapy for arthritis, pain, sciatica and muscle spasms.
Other benefits of this therapy include alleviation of the stress related disorders like insomnia, constipation, headaches and other disorders related to digestive, respiratory and reproductive systems.
“Needle-Free” Acupuncture
Said to be the oldest form of bodywork, TuiNa (twee-nah) restores balance and equilibrium to accelerate healing. It has been used in China for more than 5,000 years. Defined as “the ancient healing art of fingers and strength,” TuiNa has been gaining international attention for its safe and effective treatment for a wide variety of conditions.
It focuses on acupuncture points using manual stimulation instead of needles to give your body a deep, beautiful tune up. TuiNa can help with stiffness, pain, insomnia, headaches, migraines, digestion, premenstrual symptoms, respiratory disorders, reproductive systems, emotional health, and more.
Practitioners use their fingers, hands, and elbows to apply pressure to a specific body locations. This complementary and alternative Chinese medicine modality makes use of rhythmic compression techniques along different energy channels of the body to establish harmonious flow of Qi throughout the body and bringing it back to balance. By applying pressure to meridians, acupuncture points, and groups of muscles and nerves, TuiNa removes blockages and works deeply with the positive energy of the body.
TuiNa is incorporated into most services we offer. We utilize TuiNa to reset the nervous system, to break up stagnation, increase circulation, and to speed up healing!
