This course discusses rhythmic compression along energy
channels of the body, as well as a variety of techniques that manipulate and
lubricate the joints. You will learn various Tui Na techniques of holding and
pressing the body at acupressure points including gliding (known as effleurage
or Tui), kneading (petrissage or Nie), percussion (tapotement or Da), friction,
pulling, rotation, rocking, vibration, and shaking. Once finished, you will be
able to demonstrate a complete 30-minute Chinese Tui Na onto each other and onto
the instructor. |
