Chinese massage (Tui Na) is a form of therapeutic massage rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. It uses rhythmic pressing, rolling, and kneading techniques on acupressure points and energy meridians to relieve pain, improve circulation, and restore the balance of qi (vital energy).

Chinese and Thai massages are similar in that they aim to rebalance your body’s energy. Both are carried out with you clothed, however a Thai massage is conducted with you lying or sitting on the floor, and a Chinese massage is carried out with you lying or sitting on a couch or chair. Thai massage therapists use their hands, fingers, elbows, knees and feet to manipulate your body’s joints in a way that will stretch and destress your muscles; Chinese massage therapists use their hands, fingers and elbows to stimulate acupressure points and meridians in your soft tissues.
