The term Tuina which literally means "pinch and pull," refers to a wide range of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) therapeutic massage and body work. Tui na is not generally used for pleasure and relaxation, but rather as a treatment to address specific patterns of disharmony.
This involves massaging the whole body or just an area of the body as required in order to bring about relief, flexibility, disperse toxins, ease tensions, knots & adhesions and restore general wellbeing.

This involves putting the body through a series of techniques involving grasping, kneading, pinch & poll, rubbing, tapping, pressing, rolling, wiping, pushing and rocking.
Mostly practiced over clothes, however massage oil, cream or balm may be reapplied to areas to aid glide.
​
Tuina as practised in China treats conditions that in the west would require an osteopath, chiropractor, physiotherapist, or a sports therapist. Unlike these techniques, it works not only on the muscles and joints but also on a deeper level, affecting the flow of vital life energy in the body.
​

"A Lady asked an old street vendor: "How much do you sell your eggs for?" The old man replied "0.50¢ an egg, madam.” The Lady responde, “I'll take 6 eggs for $2.00 or I'm leaving.” The old salesman replied, “Buy them at the price you want, Madam. This is a good start for me because I haven't sold a single egg today and I need this to live.”

She bought her eggs at a bargain price and left with the feeling that she had won. She got into her fancy car and went to a fancy restaurant with her friend. She and her friend ordered what they wanted. They ate a little and left a lot of what they had asked for. So they paid the bill, which was $150. The ladies gave $200 and told the fancy restaurant owner to keep the change as a tip.

This story might seem quite normal to the owner of the fancy restaurant, but very unfair to the egg seller. The question it raises is;
Why do we always need to show that we have power when we buy from the needy?
And why are we generous to those who don't even need our generosity?

We once read somewhere that a father used to buy goods from poor people at a high price, even though he didn't need the things. Sometimes he paid more for them. His children were amazed. One day they asked him "why are you doing this dad?" The father replied: "It's charity wrapped in dignity.”

I know that most of you will not share this message, but if you are one of the people who have taken the time to read this far...
Then this message of attempted "humanisation" will have gone one step further in the right direction."

Reiki is a spiritual healing art with origins in Japan. The word "Reiki" comes from the Japanese word "Rei" which means Universal being, & "Ki" which means life force. Reiki is not affiliated with any particular religion or religious practice. Reiki was developed by Mikao Usui (1865-1926) in Japan, and later spread to the world via the United States.
​
During a Reiki session the practitioner channels energy through their hands using their intuition to sense where healing is needed most. There is little or no pressure making this treatment safe for all age groups, including pregnant women & those recovering from surgery. Reiki is administered fully clothed & can sometimes bring feelings of heat, cool, or tingling. Non-invasive, it is very relaxing & can be administered remotely too.
​
These Reiki Treatments are available across London & Buckinghamshire. (For bookings further afield please message for more details.)
Distant bookings are available across the UK.
