How can Tui Na Help?
In principle Tui Na can help with any health condition – because it works both locally as well as holistically in the body. Tui Na helps heal and strengthen the physical body but also the immune, lymphatic, nervous, digestive and endocrine systems.
In my experience, Tui Na has obtained excellent results with a wide variety of aliments and complaints including:
Healing from Injuries
- Fractures, sprains, falls and impact injuries of all kinds
- Recovery from trauma such as traffic accidents and falls
- Sports injuries
- Knee pain and injury – meniscus damage and ligament sprains
- Hand, wrist and feet injuries
- Pre and post surgery support
If you experience a traumatic accident or injury, after seeking any required emergency medical care, contact me as soon as possible. Tui Na includes Chinese traumatology knowledge and skills that can greatly reduce the impact of injuries and the duration healing time. I have helped many people of all ages get back on their feet quickly after even quite serious incidents.

Achieving top performance in whatever you do
Even healthy people benefit from Tui Na both as a prevention for potential illness and as a boost to everyday life.
People who work modern desk jobs may find the combination of sedentarism and work related stress to be detrimental to their well being over time. Tui Na is an effective antidote to the modern lifestyle and can help restore harmony, balance and a sense of being at the top of your game. It can be a support for gaining perspective on one’s life and implementing meaningful change. The body is our means of connecting to the external world around us. Tui Na helps to ground and strengthen the body which in turn gives us more connection with life and increased capacity to effect change.
Tui Na is an excellent art to support athletes and physically active people. It helps ensure that muscles and tissues remain supple and have an efficient blood supply. It also helps tendons and ligaments remain flexible and supple which prevents many sports injuries. The holistic aspect of Tui Na helps deepen the body mind connection which improves balance, concentration and proprioception.
