Of
Chinese Origin
Tui Na Massage
Tui
Na, or “push and pull” in Mandarin, is a combination of acupressure and
massage. According to traditional Chinese medical practices, poor blood and “chi”
circulation are the causes of most illness. Thus, the 2,000 year old massage
focuses on specific pain sites and is used for treating musculo-skeletal and
chronic stress related disorders.
Ba Guan Therapy
Vacuum
Suction Cupping technique, it can improve blood circulation and create a balance
in the body’s energy force. The process involves passing a flame over the
inside of a glass cup and then cupping it over the affected area. The pressure
inside the cup helps to reduce pain. Overtime, it will improve illnesses such as
rheumatism, coldness in the body and joint pain.
Gua Sha Therapy
Gua
Sha is a technique which uses pressure and friction to the skin, thereby
stimulating connective tissue affecting the internal organs. Where the flow of
blood is constricted and circulation is bad, Gua Sha works very effectively to
release blood trapped in peripheral capillaries and improve blood circulation.
Any pain, spasm or tightness in muscles is immediately relieved by this new
circulation of blood. The organs are likewise revitalized by the increased
circulation of energy, blood and fluids. Of particular benefits to those with
high “internal heat”.

and feet in the stretching motions. In so doing, the massage directs toxins out
