Tuina is a deep tissue massage treatment based on the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Physically, it is a series of pressing, tapping and kneading manipulations that removes blockages along the Channels (specific pathways in the body) and stimulate the flow of Qi (“vital energy”) and blood to promote healing. Tuina’s massage techniques range from light manipulations to deep-tissue work. It treats effectively a variety of conditions including back pain, frozen shoulder, tennis elbow, migraine, digestive disorders, stress, amongst other conditions.
A Tuina treatment generally lasts between 30 minutes and 45 minutes, depending on the purpose of the treatment.
"I had a tennis-induced shoulder injury when I went to Maria. My right shoulder felt very tight and I had difficulty moving it. Maria treated me with acupuncture, followed by cupping and Tui Na. The treatment was very relaxing and, more importantly, I have had no trouble with my shoulder since!"Marco
