If you are particular afraid of needles but want to use Traditional Chinese Medicine to relieve pain and stress or address your health concerns, then Tui Na is a wonderful alternative.
Tui Na (pronounced "t-way na") is the bodywork branch of Traditional Chinese Medicine. In contrast to most other massage forms, it utilizes the acupuncture points and pathways. As such, its effects conditions you wouldn't think to seek out a massage therapist to address such as migraine headache, insomnia, anxiety, menstrual pain, indigestion and post-partum healing along with all of the more traditional massage complaints such as frozen shoulder, low back pain, tendinitis, and stiff neck.
This form of massage is performed on a fully clothed client. A Tui Na massage can be scheduled separately or in conjunction with an acupuncture treatment.
Tui Na is comfortable, therapeutic & healing.
