Qigong massage has been part of the culture of the Chinese for five thousand years. They believe Qi represents the life energy that flows through the body. The Tui Na method is a form of Qigong massage and involves pushing, kneading and stretching of the muscles instead of the usual pressing and pinching of acupressure points. It has lesser side effects when compared to drug or chemical based modern day treatments. The practice of Tui Na complements Qigong massage on many aspects. Qigong has been effective in treating fatigue, pains, body aches, tension and other stress related health issues.
