Does It Hurt?
Tuina is similar to a massage, but the pressure is applied with more focus. If you're used to getting massages, it's unlikely Tuina will hurt. Although you may be a little sore afterward. Don't be alarmed if light bruising occurs since it's completely normal.
Just be sure to communicate with your specialist about trouble spots, preferred pressure or if you are experiencing any pain.

Where Can I Get It?
Tuina can be found at most clinics that offer access to Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), including places that specialize in acupuncture. Make sure that you are working with a practitioner who specializes in the practice. The team at Seyhart includes physicians and Asian medicine experts trained in TCM.
