Tui Na Chinese Massage
YOUR WAY TO CLEANSE YOUR BODY AND ENERGIZE YOUR SOUL.
Tui Na is an ancient Chinese medical massage. It uses various hand, thumb and elbow techniques through a cotton sheet to work and release tight muscles, ligaments, tendons and open up the meridians, which are energy systems within the body. The cotton sheet is ideal for creating friction, heat and pin pointing an area on the body for best results. Tui Na works best for those experiencing pain and discomfort from old injuries that haven’t been able to heal properly and releasing tight muscles, to internal issues such as indigestion or blockages. Most patients feel relief not just physically, as this activates the parasympathetic nervous system, but a cleansing, relaxing and calming state of mind and body afterwards.
The ancient Chinese meridian theory includes channels and trigger points on the body we use to release blockages and stimulate organs, nerves and muscles. These channels are connected throughout the body and also correlated to emotions and determine the body’s inner environment and constitution. Traditionally the doctors in china use Tui Na along with cupping, herbs, accupuncutre and acupressure to treat patients in the hospitals and clinics. I have trained in Tui Na, Cupping, chinese reflexology and some TCM also.
Advice for coming to treatment –
- Tui Na is can be performed seated or lying down and is typically performed clothed, so please wear loose fitting, warm and comfortable clothing to the treatment.
- You may have a runny nose or symptoms that have been lingering come up after treatment, this a normal part of the detoxifying effect Tui Na and massage has on the body and will clear up in a few days. It is best to keep your chi strong and keep warm during this time, particularly straight after treatment.

What My Clients Said About Me
“I have been seeing Sophie for astrology and massage. I have had complications with a past knee injury, that Sophie has completely cleared up!! We got talking during one of our sessions about astrology and I am hooked. Sophie is professional, kind and very approachable. She made me feel at ease and was incredibly knowledgeable. Couldn’t recommend enough!”
“I have been having issues with my shoulders due to my regular swimming and I haven’t been able to find someone who I trust until I found Sophie from a recommendation by a friend. I am from Hong Kong and I was specifically looking for a massage technique called Nui Na which Sophie offered. It’s extremely rare for me to find someone who does that in the area .
Sophie was very friendly and approachable and I can’t recommend her enough to anyone who needs a massage.”
