Tui Na

Tui Na – pronounced "twee-nah" - A more sophisticated form of manual bodywork than American, Swedish, or Classical massage, Chinese Tui Na massage addresses specific injuries, fitness needs, and health conditions through a variety of specialized manipulation techniques. Tui Na addresses body function as related to the flow of healing energy, or "qi" (pronounced as chee, and works to adjust the flow of qi following the fundamental theories of traditional Chinese medicine.

By restoring a balance of energy in the body, Tui Na helps to restore your natural self-healing abilities. Blood circulation is restored and encouraged, and immune system function may be enhanced or stimulated. In China, Tui Na is used to treat conditions, which might be treated in the U.S. by chiropractors, osteopaths, physiotherapists, physiatrists, and through medication. We recommend Tui Na both as a treatment method and as a form of preventive care and wellness. These sessions, which are a carefully formulated combination of techniques, integrated into a 30 or 60-minute session.
