推拿 Tui Na

推拿是属于中医传统疗法的一种重要方法。有人说它类似于疗骨术、整骨术。推拿疗法注重于人体的骨关节肌肉韧带等各种问题,同时推拿和针灸一样也作用于人体经络和穴位,不过却是以治疗师的双手和手指作为治疗工具。结合按摩、指压和其他手法,推拿通过按压穴位、经络和肌肉或神经,消除阻碍淤塞达到气血液畅通。许多健康问题如疼痛、肿胀和毒素积累就是因为气血液的淤塞导致而成的。

一般上,一次推拿疗程历时约30到60分钟,实际治疗时间则因人而异,视病人病情的复杂性或严重性,以及病人的治疗需求而定。接受治疗后,病人通常会感到放松而充满活力。

推拿的作用是全面的,即通过治疗身体可使精神强健,同时也会让您感觉身心放松、恢复活力和神清气爽。

推拿可以调节身体机能、舒缓疲劳和压力、促进血液循环、减轻肌肉酸痛、缓解组织损伤所引起的疼痛及刺激受损的组织修复,由此加快痊愈过程。

Tui Na (therapeutic massage, pronounced "twei nah") is a form of therapy that is very similar to osteopathy as it ensures that the bones are correctly aligned so that normal functioning of the nerves is not compromised.

Tui Na works on the energy channels and points, using the same principles as acupuncture except that the hands and fingers are used instead of needles. Through a combination of massage and acupressure, Tui Na applies pressure to acupoints, meridians and groups of muscles or nerves to remove blockages that prevent the free flow of Qi. Many health problems are caused by such blockages, leading to pain, swelling and the build-up of toxins.

Tui Na works holistically, treating the mind through the body and vice versa. It leaves you with a deep sense of physical and mental relaxation, revitalization and well-being.

Tui Na is best suited for rectifying certain types of chronic pain, musculoskeletal conditions and stress-related disorders.
