What is Tuina Massage?

Tuina massage is a form of physical therapy originating in China, renowned for its focus on the body's energy channels and points. An integral part of traditional Chinese medicine, this technique is based on the theory that pain and illness result from imbalances in the flow of energy, or Qi, in the body. Through specific manipulations, Tuina massage seeks to harmonize this flow, thereby promoting health and well-being.

Unlike Western massages, Tuina does not focus solely on muscles and soft tissues, but also works on adjusting the body's energy systems. It uses a variety of pressure and kneading techniques that help open blocked channels, release muscle tension and improve the circulation of Qi and blood.
