T.C.M.—Tuina

Jun 8, 2018

Brief Introduction

Tuina Massage is a general term for pressing, rubbing and manipulating your skin, muscles, tendons and ligaments. 

Massage therapists typically use their hands and fingers for massage but may also use their forearms, elbows and even feet. Massage may range from light stroking to deep pressure techniques.  

A T.C.M. Tuina massage session may last from 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the type of massage. 

No matter what kind of massage you choose, you should feel calm and relaxed during and after your massage. Pain that's more significant than momentary discomfort could indicate that something's wrong. If a massage therapist is pushing too hard, ask for lighter pressure. 

Occasionally you may have a sensitive spot in a muscle that feels like a knot. It's likely to be uncomfortable while your massage therapist works it out. But if it becomes painful, speak up.

Brush aside any thoughts that massage is only a feel-good way to indulge or pamper yourself. On the contrary, massage can be a powerful tool to help you take charge of your health and well-being, whether you have a specific health condition or are just looking for another stress reliever. You can even learn how to do self-massage or to engage in massage with a partner.

Benefits of Tuina Massage

Massage is generally considered part of complementary and alternative medicine. It's increasingly being offered along with standard treatment for a wide range of medical conditions and situations.

While more research is needed to confirm the benefits of massage, some studies have found massage helpful for:

Pain(neck pain, lower back pain, muscle pain,.etc.);

Stiffness;

Blood pressure control;

Digestive disorders, constipation;

Sports-related injuries;

Stress;

Managing mental fatigue, anxiety and depression.

Despite the benefits for specific conditions or diseases, some people enjoy massage because it involves caring, comfort and relief.

However, massage isn't a replacement for regular medical care. Let your doctor know you're trying massage and be sure to follow any standard treatment plans you have.

Cautions

Vigorous massage should be avoided by people with bleeding disorders or low blood platelet counts, and by people taking blood-thinning medications such as warfarin.

Massage should not be done in any area of the body with blood clots, fractures, open or healing wounds, skin infections, or weakened bones (such as from osteoporosis or cancer), or where there has been a recent surgery.

Pregnant women should consult their health care provider before using massage therapy.
