What is Chinese Massage?

Types of Chinese Massage
- Tui Na: Pushing and kneading to boost circulation and healing.
- Acupressure: Manual pressure to acupoints to balance energy and reduce tension.
- Gua Sha: Scraping with a tool to relieve pain and improve blood flow.
- Cupping: Suction therapy for pain relief, muscle relaxation, and detoxification.
