Tui-na Therapy

Tui-na therapy, a manual therapy in Chinese medicine, involves the manipulation of soft tissues, bones, and joints by a Chinese physician to restore function. Through various techniques using the hands or assistive devices, Tui-na therapy resolves structural and functional issues, relieving pain and improving mobility. Its primary benefit lies in correcting skeletal misalignment, often caused by poor posture that leads to uneven weight distribution in the body. Additionally, Tui-na therapy enhances mobility in segments that have become restricted. By correcting the skeletal structure and securing normal mobility, the rate of degeneration in the surrounding structures of the spine is reduced. Temporary pain or discomfort may be experienced after spinal correction due to realignment of soft tissues, but this is normal. Maintaining a correct posture is crucial to prevent the spine from becoming misaligned again. With 24 joint connections in the spine, poor posture can disrupt balance and lead to compensation-related misalignment. Regular Tui-na therapy checkups are recommended to maintain an upright spine and address any issues promptly
