Tui Na, which translates as push-grasp in Chinese, refers to the modality of Chinese medical bodywork. Tui Na employs a series of hand techniques to removeblockages along the body's meridians. Acupressure, or the stimulation of acupuncture points without needles, is one part of Tui Na. Practitioners often use herbal liniments, plasters, or compresses to help in the healing process. When correctly applied, the techniques of Tui Na are effective at treating a huge range of ailments, including orthopedic problems, sports injuries, muscular tension, and internal disease.
