What is Tuina Massage?
Tuina (twee-nah) is a type of massage that is an ancient form of Traditional Chinese Medicine and is more commonly known as the application of manipulation on the body’s channels or meridians thought to house energy or Qi. In Shiatsu, there are many procedures which include kneading, rolling, pressing, and stretching to balance the flow of energy within the body. During a massage at the Tuina Massage Center, the practitioners stimulate certain acupuncture points and even acupuncture channels which are pathways of energy. This is useful in reducing tension, increasing blood flow, and easing pain.
What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is the type of manual approach to health treatment that works on the musculoskeletal system of the patient’s body. Tuina Osteopathy Massage is an approach to the treatment of a person, aiming at enhancing the patient’s well-being due to the normalization of the restricted tissues and balance within the human body. Osteopaths then use delicate movements on the body to assist in improving mobility, relieving pain, and supporting functional healing of the body.
How Tuina and Osteopathy Work
These two are true healing systems that look at the inherent capacity of the body to heal itself. In conjunction, they produce the most beneficial synergy that corrects not only the physical placement of the joints and organs but also the energy issues of the body.
- Holistic Healing: Whereas osteopathy is based on structural dysfunction like bad posture or joint pain, Tuina is related to the balance of the internal energy circulation. This allows for the treatment of both the physical and energetic health of the individual.
- Pain Relief: When used in combination, these two can be especially helpful in managing chronic pain. Osteopathic manipulation relieves stress on muscles and joints and frees the blocked energy in Tuina decreasing pain and tension.
- Improved Circulation: Osteopathy works on the principle of removing stiffness from joints and muscles to enhance blood circulation. When combined with Tuina, which regulates energy flow through the meridians, the whole body is, therefore, able to experience improved circulation. This can help to build up your immune system and also help to improve your energy levels.
