Tuina
may be applied to treat many disorders from soft tissue injuries
to many other kinds of ailments such as rheumatic pain, tiredness,
lack of energy and any symptoms caused by stress or emotional
problems. Tuina is well suited for the treatment of specific
musculoskeletal disorders and chronic stress-related disorders
of the digestive, respiratory and reproductive systems.
Tuina
is even used for cosmetic purposes such as weight loss and an
alternative to botox! Tuina is especially good for adults, infants,
sports medicine, general health care for the elderly, rehabilitation
and orthopaedics.
In
a typical session, the client, wearing loose clothing and no
shoes, lies on a couch. The practitioner examines the specific
problems of the client and begins to apply a specific treatment
protocol. The major focus of application is upon specific pain
sites, acupressure points, energy meridians, and muscles and
joints. The client usually feels relaxed but energized by the
treatment.
Tuina
is not especially useful for those seeking a mild, sedating
and relaxing massage since it tends to be more task focused
than other types of bodywork.
Today
in China, every hospital has a Tuina Department. Patients queue
up every morning to have a huge range of symptoms treated, from
prolapsed discs to frozen shoulder and sciatica, to high blood
pressure, migraines, knee problems, to sun stroke, menstrual
problems, fatigue or insomnia. Even more symptoms are treated
in the infantile Tui Na clinic within the department, even including
short sightedness.
Tuina
is the basis upon which many modern complementary therapies
are based, such as Shiatsu, Acupressure, Baby Massage, Deep
Tissue Massage, Sports Massage, Lymphatic Draining to name but
a few. Chiropractic and Physiotherapy manipulations are also
founded on Tuina techniques.
