Tui Na traces its lineage to ancient China. It’s been a foundational part of the country’s healing traditions for thousands of years, alongside acupuncture and herbal medicine.
Qi, the body’s flow of life-giving energy, is the focus of Tui Na. Qi blockages can decrease your sense of well-being, so Tui Na acts like acupuncture in a way, massaging specific points on the body to get qi flowing freely again so you feel rejuvenated.
Tui Na strokes can be gentle (yin) or vigorous (yang). The intensity of the strokes a therapist uses depends on what a client needs. There are also several different techniques used in Tui Na, including pressing, kneading, pushing, holding, or palpating muscles, joints, and tendons.
You may want to try Tui Na to relieve many kinds of health issues, such as headaches, insomnia, stress-related tension, and PMS, among others. One research study even indicated it may help relieve pain and symptoms in cancer patients. Tui Na is touted for :
- Pain relief in the low back and neck
- Improved blood circulation
- Mood boosting
- Alleviating symptoms of arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and other issues that affects the joints, muscles, or bones
