A form of East Asian massage performed according to the same principles as acupressure is called Tui na. The person performing the treatment will use their fingers to target acupoints on the patients body. Pressing these points can help release muscle tension and promote blood circulation

Unlike Western massage, which is used to treat a wide range of conditions, acupressure is used to treat specific conditions.

MOXIBUSTION

Moxibustion is also a traditional form of treatment in Chinese medicine. It heats acupuncture points, meridian channels, or a specific area of the body, such as a joint, with a glowing cigar made from a relative of a pujo. The technology is warming and strengthening and stimulating tissue metabolism.

At our clinic, we use so-called indirect moxibustion, where the mocha is not in direct contact with the skin but usually at a distance of 1-3 cm from what makes the technique gentle and safe.

In Xin Acupuncture, we use almost odorless and smokeless carbon moxel, if necessary in conjunction with acupuncture treatment.
