Tui na is a Chinese system of therapeutic medical massage. Tui na differs from other massage modalities in that it is based on the principles of Chinese medicine. It uses a variety of techniques to increase the flow of blood, qi and body fluids. This increased perfusion can treat pathological imbalances, as well as help to prevent them.
Qi gong, chi kung, or chi gung ( or ) (pronounced "chee-gung") is a practice of aligning breath, movement, and awareness for exercise, healing, and meditation.

Typically a qi gong practice involves rhythmic breathing, coordinated with slow stylized repetition of movement, and a calm mindful state.
Labor is one of the most difficult experiences that women can go through. It is stressful, painful, and scary, but also magical, beautiful and life changing. Chinese medicine is probably best known for its ability to change the position of babies that are in the breech position, but that is only one of many conditions that we treat in relation to labor.
Doulas are women who serve the mother through providing physical and emotional support from the time the mother asks until after the baby arrives. A doula offers a kind, helping hand to the mother and her partner while in labor and throughout the delivery process. Doulas are trained in a variety of comfort techniques, and can offer helpful suggestions to the laboring couple to keep labor moving in the right direction.
Pregnancy in Chinese medicine is a pivotal time in a woman's life and is one of the only opportunities to change a woman's fundamental constitution.

Tuesday Wasserman. Her skill, intuition, care, attention, and knowledge are stellar. I attribute profound progress in my healing to her, as well as my deeper and more informed understanding of my injuries and health issues. I am forever grateful. She is one of the most talented and compassionate healers I have ever known. Don't know what I'd do without her!
