Manual Therapy (Tui Na) – Supportive Treatment

Not a Standalone Massage Service

Manual therapy (Tui Na) at our clinic is not offered as a standalone massage service.

It is used as a supportive treatment to enhance the effectiveness of acupuncture and improve overall treatment outcomes.

How We Use Manual Therapy

We apply manual therapy techniques selectively, based on clinical assessment.

It may be used to:

• Release local muscle tension
• Improve tissue mobility
• Prepare the body before acupuncture
• Support recovery after treatment

This approach allows the treatment to be more precise and effective.

---

When Is It Appropriate?

Manual therapy is used only when it is clinically indicated, such as:

• Tight or restricted muscles affecting movement
• Areas requiring additional soft tissue release
• Conditions where combined treatment improves results

It is not applied routinely, and not all patients will require it.

Our Treatment Focus

At our clinic, the primary focus is:

👉 Acupuncture
👉 Nerve-related diagnosis and treatment

Manual therapy is used as a complementary method to support this process, not as the main treatment.

---

Why This Matters

Many treatments fail because they focus only on surface symptoms.

By combining acupuncture with selective manual therapy when needed, we are able to:

• Improve treatment efficiency
• Target deeper layers of dysfunction
• Achieve more stable and lasting results
