Shauna Palmer, Meridian Acupressure Massage


Continuing with... What is Tui Na Acupressure and how does it benefit my health?

Tui Na focuses on re-balancing by working out blockages of the flow of Life-force energy throughout the body as a whole organism. This helps restore the body’s optimum functions and ability to heal. You can expect this Asian bodywork modality to leave you feeling more whole, limber, coordinated, centered and grounded, plus relaxed yet energized.

Tui Na is still practiced in China today, including in hospitals, along with acupuncture—the latter being a technological advancement and specialization of this ancient and fundamental approach to health.

Following a discussion of the status of your health condition, the Tui Na acupressure treatment is typically applied with the patient lying on a massage table. Other arrangements can be made when necessary, such as use of a massage chair.
