TuiNa Process

URBAN TUINA

Typical TuiNa Session

Let me walk you through what to expect during a typical Tuina session:

1. Getting to Know You:

First things first, I'll need a little background information. We'll chat about your medical history and any concerns you have. Then, I'll perform a brief physical assessment to understand your unique needs.

2. Setting the Stage:

No need to disrobe for this treatment! Whether you're more comfortable lying down or seated, I'll ensure a comfortable position throughout the session. In most cases, the treatment is performed through a light sheet for your comfort. Occasionally and in consultation with you, I may use topical herbal ointments on specific areas to enhance the treatment.

3. Communication is Key:

During the session, you may experience some temporary soreness. Remember, my focus is on your comfort while still achieving the best results. I'll constantly adjust the pressure based on your feedback to ensure a pleasant experience.

4. Time for Relaxation and Repair:

A typical Tuina treatment typically lasts between 30-60 minutes, depending on your specific condition. As part of your personalized treatment plan, I may recommend some simple rehabilitation exercises you can do at home to further aid your recovery and maintain the progress we make during our sessions.

Remember, Tuina is a time-tested tradition designed to promote your well-being. I'm here to guide you through the process and help you experience the benefits of this ancient healing art.
