Workshop Level: Advanced
Never before has the original Chinese Acupressure-Meridian Massage, called Tui Na, pronounced “tway nah,” online course offered for horses, dogs, and cats to everyone who loves animals. Tui Na has been used with humans and animals for thousands of years and is the most commonly used form of bodywork in China today!
Tui Na is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It can be best described as a combination between massage and acupressure. Massage is the manipulation of bodily tissues, while acupressure works with the energetics of the body. By combining these two powerful yet gentle forms of bodywork humans and animals alike receive the physical and emotional health benefits which include:
-
builds the immune system
- releases endorphins necessary to relieve pain
- strengthens muscles, tendons, joints and bones
- releases natural cortisone to reduce swelling and inflammation
- resolves injuries more readily by increasing blood circulation and removing toxins
- balances the flow of energy and blood to optimize nourishment of internal organs and bodily tissues
