Tui Na is method of Chinese bodywork characterized by the smooth gliding or rolling movements of the hands and arms. Through Tui (push) and Na (grasp), kneading, pressing, rolling, shaking, and stretching of the skin and muscles, acupoints are opened and the natural flow of energy, or Qi, is realigned in the musculo-tendoneous pathways, or meridians. Tuina techniques are used to treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal and internal organ disorders by dispersing stagnation in the meridians and promoting the circulation of Qi into deficient areas.
In addition to Tui Na, acupuncture, cupping, therapeutic exercises, external herbal poultices, compresses, medicated plasters, liniments, and salves may be used to enhance the therapeutic effect of the treatment
