Chinese TuiNa Therapy & a healthier body
Tui Na is one of traditional Chinese therapies, which dates back to 2500 BC. The acupuncture theory as well as Chinese Tui Na Therapy believe that different points in the body act as gates regulating the energy flow or Chi and nurture the organs. Oriental theory sees our life force distributed by rivers (called Meridians) or lines of Chi. As ancient thought sees our energy as traveling in rivers within the body. It is believed that the balance of energy called Chiis a Key to vitality. Chinese Tui Na Therapy uses the meridian lines of energy and acupressure points seek to help the body balance its forces and free its potential for vitality and wellness.
Accupressure
Acupressure is an ancient Chinese healing technique similar in principle to acupuncture. It is based on the concept of life energy, which flows through “meridians” in the body. In treatment, physical pressure is applied to acupuncture points with the aim of clearing blockages in these meridians. Pressure may be applied by hands, by elbows or by fingers on the body to relieve tension or pain and balance the flow of the body. Acupressure can be effective in helping relieve headache, neck pain, backache, arthritis and tension due to stress
Reflexology
The concept of Reflexology is that different areas of the feet are linked to specific body parts, and that putting pressure on one area of the foot can have an effect on the organ that it corresponds with. Several studies indicate that reflexology may reduce pain and psychological symptoms, such as stress and anxiety, and enhance relaxation and your sleep.

Deep Tissue
Deep tissue massage is a technique that’s used to treat musculoskeletal issues, such as strains as well as sports injuries. It involves applying sustained pressure using slow, deep strokes to target the inner layers of your muscles and connective tissues. This helps to break up scar tissue that forms following an injury and assists in reduce tension in muscle and tissue. Deep Tissue Massage may also promote faster healing by increasing blood flow and reducing inflammation. Unlike other massage techniques that focus on relaxation, deep tissue massage helps to treat muscle pain and improve stiffness.
