Summary
Massage can treat many diseases and relieve pain. Chinese massage is the foundation of all massages and achieves therapeutic effects through acupoint massage.
Massage, also known as "tuina", is the preferred method for Chinese medicine treatment and health care.
Pressing method: pressing and holding acupoints with thumbs or palms, gradually applying pressure without being rigid. This is an inductive technique that can be applied to all parts of the body. The pressing method can be divided into finger pressing, palm pressing, and elbow pressing.
Rubbing method: using the palm or finger pad to rub the surface of the acupoint in a clockwise or counterclockwise circular rhythm. The rubbing method can be divided into finger rubbing, palm rubbing, and palm-root rubbing.
Pushing method: using four fingers pressed together to push and squeeze the muscles upwards or sideways. The pushing method can be divided into flat pushing with fingers, palms, and elbows.
Grabbing method: using the thumb and index or middle finger to grab and lift the affected area or acupoint, applying symmetric force with alternating tightness and looseness. The grabbing method requires a relaxed and flexible wrist and pressure applied with the finger pad.
