TUI NA
Tui Na is Chinese Medical Massage. It is meant to be therapeutic, although it usually is also relaxing. There are specific strokes such as grasping, rolling, kneading. It uses both gentle and firm techniques to massage not only the muscles and skin, but also the organs inside. Rolling is a resonance technique like a wave. Although it feels gentle, in reality those gentle waves are flowing deeper inside and doing the work of a deep tissue massage without the heavy pressure. This is very useful when there are injuries, acute pain in the area, or to massage over the bony areas.
