Richard is a fully qualified and insured Tuina Massage Therapist.
Prices are 25 euro for half an hour and 40 euro for an hour.
Tuina is performed either in a seated position or on a treatment couch. You are fully clothed and covered with a medical blanket. On occasion special medicated creams are used to increase blood flow and warm the muscles.
Tuina is unique in that it can treat the same diseases as Acupuncture but has the added benefit of also working extremely fast on the muscles, tendons and ligaments of the body.
Treatments typically last from 20 mins to an hour depending on the condition and the constitution of the person. Tuina has been the predominant choice for the Chinese people in their own country when dealing with injury, pain and trauma. Tuina covers all aspects of massage, manipulation, physical therapy, and herbal preparations. There has been no need for physiotherapy, osteopathy, chiropractic, sports massage - as Tuina has dealt with all the issues these therapies face.

Back pain
