Can Baby Tui Na Chinese Massage be used for treating illness?
Ilnesses of all kinds are the result of some disturbance to the normal flow of Qi. Tui Na can restore this flow to treat most of the common health problems of young children:

Baby Tui Na Chinese Massage or Paediatric Tui Na is a branch of traditional Chinese Medicine and was developed from Tui Na for adults over a thousand years ago.
It has been extensively practised in China for at least 700 years
and experience has revealed unique ways and means of affecting the
energy flow in the bodies of young children.
Babies have meridian systems that are not fully developed,
yet every aspect of a baby's growth and
development depends on Qi flow and its correct balance.
Tui Na Chinese massage for infants uses a whole system of points
and pathways that often do not correspond with any of the adult
ones. Tui Na Chinese massage for babies is powerful
medicine and when performed correctly, its effects are profound.
It is during the first five years of a child's life that the
most important physical, neurological and behavioural developments take place. This is the time when disturbances to the flow and diffusion
of vital Qi and its balance between the organs can have the most
seriously harmful and lasting effects. These include retarded brain
development, weakened immune response and slow development of the
musculo-skeletal system.
What is the difference between baby Tui Na Chinese massage and oil based Western baby massage?
- Oil based massages can be very relaxing and soothing and help
to reinforce the bond between parent
and child. Tui Na does the same and much more and can be
done through clothing.
- Baby Tui Na is unique. It is the only hands-on system that has
been developed specifically for the
total healthcare of infants from birth to six years.
- Baby Tui Na is completely different from Western baby massage.
- Other forms of massage currently used for babies and young children
are based only on slight adaptations of the methods used for adults
and are generally not remedial in content.
- Baby Tui Na is based on sophisticated
theory that has been systematically documented over a period of
one thousand years during which all the techniques in use
today have been tested a million times.
- Baby Tui Na enables you to balance the intrinsic energies of
your child's body and mind.
