Taoist
Healing Massage
The Taoist
definition of health is "the smooth, harmonious,
abundant, and appropriate flow of Qi", and this is what I
will assist you in achieving. My massage work includes
various methods of profound relaxation, sports massage and Tui
Na, which is an Oriental Medicine procedure I studied in
Beijing, China. I use the philosophy of Classical
Chinese Medicine based upon Taoist methods of health and
healing. These principles and techniques are the same as
those used in acupuncture, but instead of needles I use an
approach that integrates energy healing (Medical
QiGong) and
acupressure into the massage.
Massage and
Medical QiGong can be done together in one treatment, or at
times only one may be used depending on your personal
situation and preference.

shown to reduce blood pressure and heart rate; increase
cytotoxic capacity (activity level of the body’s natural
"killer cells") and decrease T-cells; enhance
weight gain in pre-term infants; increase lymph flow and
