Tui Na promotes and re-establishes health, and it restores injured tissues. Some treatment protocols require major Tui Na focus to attack the root of the pain, move blood stasis, and fight off disease. Tui Na practitioners seek to treat, not massage; because Tui Na is beyond producing just a relaxed result as in a regular massage session
The Academy offers a 250-hour and 500-hour Tui Na Massage Therapy Certificate Program. This special program focuses on the integration of Western massage and Oriental Acupressure therapies and techniques. The Academy wants to encourage the use of alternative medicine to inspire pharmaceutical-free health awareness.
