Massage 
Chinese
massage is an effective and
comprehensive therapy and is regarded alongside herbs, diet, qigong as
one of the fundamental arts of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
There
are massage textbooks as far back as the Nei Jing (722-481 BC), the
most
ancient medical text. The development of the
Chinese massage tradition came from the synergy between four groups:
-
doctors who brought the sophisticated medical theories of Chinese
medicine to massage,
- martial arts who
combined deep experience of qi with great ability to heal
injuries,
- Bhuddist and Taoist adepts who
used massage as an essential support to their spiritual yoga
- and
laymen often blind practitioners offering massage for pleasure and
relaxation.
The massage we practice and teach
here specially emphases relaxation and through relaxation, Qi
circulation.
It should help you to get better sensation during
your practice, and during your stay here!
