Tuina Massage
Tuina Massage is also known as Chinese Massage. In our clinic, we use Tuina Massage as secondary treatment method for pain management.
About Tuina Massage
Tuina Massage utilises hands instead of acupuncture needles and stimulates similar nerve points. Often referred to as Chinese osteopathy, it helps people in physical discomfort and pain by massaging soft tissue and muscle coupled with joint manipulation.
Tuina Massage is more vigorous than western style massage as it aims to pressure nerve points. Our therapist will advise appropriate treatments based on your symptoms and conditions.

Dr Nan Xia has more than 30 years clinical experience and helped thousands of patients with pain issues. Wtih her deep understanding of nerves, muscles, skeletal systems on western medical training, she can pinpoint the root cause of the problems and symptoms. She performs Tuina treatment not only to relax muscle, at the same time she stretches the ligaments and tendons to extend the gaps between vertebrae. This can help the patient relax both physically and mentally.
