Manual therapy techniques are widely studied within physiotherapy and rehabilitation science.

They may:

• Improve joint range of motion
• Reduce muscle hypertonicity
• Enhance proprioceptive feedback
• Reduce pain sensitivity

• Postural tension
• Neck and shoulder stiffness
• Low back pain
• Sports-related strain

Tuina developed alongside acupuncture and remains part of hospital-based rehabilitation in China today.

Tuina is adapted to the patient’s age, injury history, and health status. It is generally safe when delivered appropriately.
