Tui-Na is a traditional Chinese massage that works with the meridian system. It is a very therapeutic, deep tissue massage. The massage therapist works with different points on the meridian system.
By using selected points and massaging along the meridians a skillful therapist is able to release pain and tension on many levels.
Energies are balanced, allowing the body to heal itself.
Meridians are the channels or pathways that carry Qi and blood through the body. In Chinese Meridian theory, these channels are imperceptible but are thought to provide a kind of informational network.
The meridian system unifies all the parts of the body and it is essential for keeping the bodys system well-balanced and in optimal health. | |
