  • Tui Na Or Tuina Pronounced (Tōō·Ē Nä) Or Pinyin: Tuī Ná), Is a Form of Chinese Manipulative Therapy Often Used in Conjunction with Other Forms of Chinese Therapies
    Tui na or tuina pronounced (tōō·ē nä) or pinyin: tuī ná), is a form of Chinese manipulative therapy often used in conjunction with other forms of Chinese therapies. Tui na is a hands-on body treatment that uses Chinese Taoist and martial arts principles in an effort to bring the eight principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) into balance. The practitioner may brush, knead, roll/press, and rub the areas between each of the joints, known as the eight gates, to attempt to open the body's defensive (wei) chi and get the energy moving in the meridians and the muscles. The practitioner can then use range of motion, traction, and massage, with the stimulation of acupressure points. These techniques are claimed to aid in the treatment of both acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, as well as many non- musculoskeletal conditions. Tui na is an integral part of TCM and is taught in TCM schools as part of formal training in Oriental Medicine. Many East Asian martial arts schools also teach Tui na to their advanced students for the treatment and management of injury and pain due to training. As with many other traditional Chinese medical practices, there are several different schools with greater or smaller differences in their approach to the discipline. In ancient China, medical therapy was often classified as either "external" or "internal" treatment. Tui na was considered to be one of the external methods, thought to be especially suitable for use on the elderly population and on infants. Today, Tui na is subdivided into specialized treatment for infants, adults, orthopedics, traumatology, cosmetology, rehabilitation, sports medicine, etc Techniques Used in Tui Na Tui Na uses rhythmic compression along energy channels of the body, as well as a variety of techniques that manipulate and lubricate the joints.

  • (Tui Na) for Chronic Low Back Pain: Study Protocol for a Randomized
    Yang et al. Trials 2014, 15:418 http://www.trialsjournal.com/content/15/1/418 TRIALS STUDY PROTOCOL Open Access Effectiveness of Chinese massage therapy (Tui Na) for chronic low back pain: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial Mingxiao Yang1†, Yue Feng1†, Hong Pei2, Shufang Deng1, Minyu Wang1, Xianjun Xiao1, Hui Zheng1, Zhenhong Lai1, Jiao Chen1, Xiang Li1, Xiaoguo He2* and Fanrong Liang1* Abstract Background: Low back pain is a common, disabling musculoskeletal disorder in both developing and developed countries. Although often recommended, the potential efficacy of massage therapy in general, and Chinese massage (tuina) in particular, for relief of chronic low back pain (CLBP) has not been fully established due to inadequate sample sizes, low methodological quality, and subclinical dosing regimens of trials to date. Thus, the purpose of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to evaluate the comparative effectiveness of tuina massage therapy versus conventional analgesics for CLBP. Methods/Design: The present study is a single center, two-arm, open-label RCT. A total of 150 eligible CLBP patients will be randomly assigned to either a tuina treatment group or a conventional drug control group in a 1:1 ratio. Patients in the tuina group receive a 20 minutes, 4-step treatment protocol which includes both structural and relaxation massage, administered in 20 sessions over a period of 4 weeks. Patients in the conventional drug control group are instructed to take a specific daily dose of ibuprofen. The primary outcome measure is the change from baseline back pain and function, measured by Roland-Morris Disability Questionnaire, at two months.

  • Comments & Notes
    Canadian Alliance of Regulatory Bodies for Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists (CARB-TCMPA) Pan-Canadian Standard for Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists: Entry-Level Occupational Competency Profile 2018 (rev 2, May 2 2018) Approved by the provincial regulatory authorities 1 Copyright © 2018 CARB-TCMPA All rights reserved INTRODUCTION Occupational Competencies were first developed by the Canadian Alliance of Regulatory Bodies for Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists (CARB-TCMPA) in 2009, and updated in 2010 and 2015. They underwent a comprehensive review and revalidation in 2017, leading to the current document. The original development process involved the identification of proposed competencies by an inter-provincial committee of experienced Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioners and educators, working with a consultant1. The committee utilized source documents from various countries describing TCM education and practice, as well as the expertise of its members. Validation surveys took place in 2009 and 2017. This involved online consultation of practitioners in British Columbia, Alberta, Ontario, Quebec and Newfoundland & Labrador, to determine the extent to which the proposed competencies were deemed by practitioners to be important, frequently-used and appropriate as entry-to-practice requirements. An Occupational Competency is defined as the ability to perform a job function with a specified level of proficiency. At entry-to-practice, the minimum level of proficiency required is Entry-Level Proficiency, which is characterized as follows: When presented with routine situations, the entry-level practitioner applies each relevant competency in a manner consistent with generally accepted standards in the profession, without supervision or direction, and within a reasonable timeframe.

    Clever Guide To Eastern Medicine clevercarehealthplan.com At Clever Care, our focus is on a person’s complete well-being. Our holistic approach to care combines the centuries-old healing therapies of Eastern medicine with the innovative practices of Western medicine. Eastern Medicine Background Eastern medicine explores the intimate relationship between the human body and its natural environment. Disease is understood to be a deviation from natural environment and can be treated with specific interventions. Natural treatment methods such as acupuncture, herbal remedies, and cupping are used. Additionally, energy-balancing exercise supports the well-being of the mind and body. The combination of these techniques enhances the management of chronic conditions and its symptoms and improves disease prevention. Health Benefits of Eastern Medicine Eastern medicine is a 2,000-year-old medical system, derived from the theory that “Qi” (the life force) flows throughout the body. When the Qi is compromised, the body is susceptible to disease. Specialists who use Eastern medicine understand that the cause of health problems is an imbalance in the body rather than a one- way direct diagnosis and treatment perspective.

  • Traditional Chinese Medicine Explained to Bodyworkers: a Personal Approach to Treating Complex Cases
    Traditional Chinese Medicine explained to Bodyworkers: A Personal Approach to treating Complex Cases. by Wolfgang Luckmann A.P.( Acupuncture Physician ), L.M.T.( Fl..19842 ), Reiki Master, Homeopath I am a continuing education provider of massage therapy courses and get many inquiries from prospective students about the relevance and importance of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the form of Tui-Na ( Chinese medical massage ) and acupressure to their clients . Some of them have been exposed to acupressure and Shiatsu in a limited way, but wouldn’t call themselves practitioners of these modalities yet, as they are too unsure of their knowledge of Chinese medicine. My answer is that the application of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) bodywork modalities will allow them to diversify and deepen their practice. Many of these inquirers are also seeking ways to work smarter and in a less confrontational manner. They tell me , that they want to make a significant impact on their clients’ pain and stress levels during the first visit with a treatment that will also last . Yet they find that they often overwork themselves leaving them prone to injury, or the clients themselves remain in significant pain , after that first visit. A major reason for the persistence of that pain is the complexity of the client’s signs and symptoms. When I ask them to give me examples of such cases, these massage therapists often mention Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue clients My personal view has been to ask bodywork therapists to re- examine their roles as massage therapists and project themselves as holistic practitioners addressing the mind, body , emotions and spirit components of their clients.
