Traditional Chinese Medicine
Traditional Chinese Medicine has been the main medical system
operating in China for over 2000 years. It wisdom is in treating the whole
person not just the disease or area of concern. Its aim is to re-balance the
enery systems of the body allowing it to heal itself.
Tui Na. Chinese Tui Na is a therapeutic approach used to treat disease
through massage manipulations. The practitioner may brush, knead, roll/press and
rub the areas between each of the joints (known as the eight gates) to open the
body's defensive (wei) chi and get the energy moving in both the meridians and
the muscles. Tui Na differs from other types of massage as it not only works
muscle tissue and bone structure, but also applies it methods to certain
acupressure points promoting greater response to treatment. Tui na has fewer
side effects than modern drug-based and chemical-based treatments. Tui Na has
purpose to balance yin and yang, regulate the internal organs and promote
healthy circulation of blood and ‘Qi’. Tui Na can be used to treat many ailments
from head or back pain, sports injury through to internal disease, chronic
stress-related disorders of the digestive, respiratory, and reproductive
systems.
Cupping is an ancient therapy used by many cultures for thousands of
years. Cupping therapy involves introducing a flame into a glass or a rubber
cup, which will rid of oxygen and create a vacuum. The practitioner then rapidly
turns the cup on to the desired location. Children as well as adults can benefit
from cupping therapy. The benefit from Cupping Abdominal pain, anemia, asthma,
back pain, cellulite, common cold and influenza, constipation, Musculoskeletal
pains. Stress related conditions, depression, tiredness, broken veins and sports
injuries The ultimate aim of all hands-on techniques is to use physical
application in order to stimulate the body’s natural healing powers by balancing
the physical, mental and emotional energies and restore health to the
individual. For detoxification the most dramatic effect is upon the skin and the
circulatory system. The blood and the body-fluid flow in the arteries and veins
increases, this results in the removal of toxins. Following few applications

the bladder line, increases blood flow and Qi circulation to the main organs and

Amnu Fu is an ancient healing system from China which is based on the
Chinese theories that our internal organs control and enhance both our
psychology & physiology.This massage technique is used to balance the internal
organs clearing blockages and stuck emotions within the organs. It increases and
creates a healthy energy flow throughout the body. Stress is a major factor in
todays lifestyles, irritable bowel syndrome, digestive disorders, ME, crohns
disease etc., all effectively eased and cleared by working with this non
invasive treatment.
Food intollerance testing.
Over two thousand years ago the Chinese realised and researched that some people
responded badly to certain foods creating deterioration in physical and mental
health.
This in turn leads to lack of energy and sometimes creating chronic illness or
longer term complaints such as depression, sleep problems, irritable bowel
syndrome, weight gain/loss, bloating, headaches etc.
Food testing is very simple, using your body to muscle test food and drink etc
for intollerances. Allergies are very different to intollerance, if you have an
allergy, you will often experience and immediate reaction.
