Tuina (Tui Na) Massage

Across between acupressure and Shiatsu, Tuina therapy uses rhythmic compression along energy channels of the body together with manipulation techniques at acupressure points to elicit self-healing. Tui Na massage closely resembles Western massage.

Description

You will learn the ancient art of Tuina (Tui Na – pronounced ‘twee naw’) massage in our one day intensive course.

A cross between acupressure and Shiatsu, Tuina therapy uses rhythmic compression along energy channels of the body together with manipulation techniques at acupressure points to elicit self-healing. Tuina massage closely resembles Western massage.

Tuina massage stimulates the flow of qi to promote balance and harmony within the body using many of the same principles of acupuncture.

It’s similar to acupuncture in the way it targets specific acupoints, but practitioners use fingers instead of needles to apply pressure to stimulate these points.
