This type of massage focuses on the abdominal area and is traditionally believed to help release tension in the internal organs and support the body’s natural detoxification processes. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it’s thought that emotional stress can affect the digestive system, potentially leading to discomfort such as bloating, sluggish digestion or irregular bowel movements.
This revitalising treatment aims to gently stimulate the digestive area, promoting a sense of relaxation and balance in both body and mind. Many clients describe feeling lighter, more energised and emotionally clearer after a session. The practice is rooted in the idea of opening what is referred to in Taoist philosophy as “the Three Treasures” — body, mind, and spirit — allowing for a more harmonious internal state.
Traditional Chinese Medicine has been practised for over 4,000 years and continues to play a role in supporting overall wellbeing. While not a medical treatment, many people turn to these therapies as part of a holistic approach to managing the physical and emotional impact of modern life.
Some techniques used may also assist with releasing tension in the jaw or neck area, supporting relaxation and a sense of alignment. All treatments are non-invasive and tailored to individual needs, with the aim of reducing physical stress and encouraging natural flow throughout the body.
