Tui Na is a hands-on body treatment that uses Chinese Taoist and martial arts principles in an effort to bring the eight principles to Traditional Chinese Medicine into balance. The practitioner may brush, knead, roll, pass, and rub the areas between each of the joints, known as the eight gates, to attempt to open the body’s defensive Chi and get the energy moving in the meridians and the muscles. The practitioner can then use range of motion, traction, and massage, with the stimulation of acupressure points. These techniques are claimed to aid in the treatment of both acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, as well as many non-musculoskeletal conditions. Yudan has practiced over 25 years of traditional Chinese theraputic massage. She specialized in Tui Na, Cupping, Gua Sha, and Reflexology.
