"Time for a Mini Qi Massage" February/2025
People from all cultures have instinctively performed self-massage to help relieve sore muscles and facilitate speedy recovery from injury. Physical manipulation of the body’s soft tissue is effective for many common ailments such as relieving headaches, joint pain, and stomach discomfort.
Chinese massage is performed by lightly rubbing
the skin over meridians, acupoints, organs, muscles, and joints. Endings
of the nerves are pressed and stimulated along with the energetic channels
located throughout the body. This regulates circulation of qi (vital energy) and blood,

that limbers up joints, tendons, and muscles – along with clearing the mind and eliminating
stagnant qi remaining in certain pockets of the body.

highlighting the connection between one's emotional or mental state and health of their digestive system.
