Tui Na Massage at Pulse Acupuncture: Experience the Healing Touch
Tui na massage, also called tuina massage (pronounced twee-nah), is a powerful form of Chinese medical bodywork that is used for a variety of conditions. Used in China for over 5,000 years, tui na massage focuses on establishing a harmonious flow of the qi, or healthy energy, through the meridian channels by making use of rhythmic compression techniques. Tuina massage is based on the same Oriental medical principles as acupuncture and is often used in conjunction with other treatment modalities, like acupuncture and cupping, to achieve optimal health for the client.
What is Tuina Massage?
Massage tui na originated in ancient China, and is now considered one of the oldest systems of bodywork. Tuina wellness massage is one of the four main traditional Chinese Medicine branches, with others being qi gong, Chinese herbal medicine, and acupuncture. Tui na practitioners generally use their fingers, hands, elbows, knees, or feet to apply pressure, kneading, stretching, and rolling to special body areas. Tuina massage aims to restore the healthy balance within the patient’s body and promote a healthy positive energy flow within the body by applying pressure to specific muscle groups, nerves, meridians, and acupoints to remove the blockages that the practitioner identifies.
How Tui Na Massage Works?
Similarly to acupuncture, the Chinese tuina massage uses acupoints and energy meridians to promote a healthy qi (energy) and improve the blood flow in your body. However, unlike acupuncture, asian massage tuina uses applied pressure and manual manipulation instead of needles to stimulate the same 12 body points. It is believed that if the qi is blocked or not flowing properly, the result may be pain or a variety of illnesses, so tuina massage specialists focus on massaging the patient’s tendons and muscles to directly impact and improve the flow of qi at different acupoints. For a maximum result, many patients choose to utilize other treatment modalities that use the same principles of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine).
Tui Na Massage Benefits at Pulse Acupuncture

- neck pain;
- lower back pain;
- migraines and headaches.
Additionally, Tuina massage offers benefits such as improved blood circulation, relief from certain diabetic symptoms, and a reduction in inflammation. On top of that, tui na massage therapy showed positive results when treating mental health conditions like depression and anxiety. This massage technique can also promote relaxation, reduce stress and provide insomnia relief. Conditions such as IBS, digestive and respiratory conditions, and sports injuries are also successfully treated by the tui na massage techniques. Though more research is needed, tui na massage is generally considered a great alternative to conventional medicine to treat a wide variety of conditions.

Tuina Massage Testimonials in Brooklyn
Amazing experience! Marina is knowledgeable and professional. She has created a very relaxing vibe in her studio that makes the appointment feel like amazing self care. I’m 40 weeks + 3 days pregnant and felt very comfortable with the table set up and also trusted that she knew what she was doing.
Such a soothing environment and Marina is very professional. She explains everything that she is going to do. While I know I need more sessions, I noticed today that I was already able to walk further than before with significantly less pain after the 1st session. What a blessing!!
Marina has been treating me in Clifton for about 6 months for chronic pain. I must say she is extremely knowledgeable and has helped to quiet my deep muscle spasms. As an unexpected bonus, the acupuncture had also helped muscle atrophy from a surgery I had over 12 years ago.Marina is very accommodating, kind, and attentive, and her staff is a pleasure to deal with. I highly recommend Pulse.
My experience was phenomenal, I had fire cupping done for the first time, an absolute life changing experience. 🙌
The session was great. I’m dealing with sciatica issues and during one session I was able to receive full body acupuncture, cupping , electro pulse therapy and a stress reading. All very helpful for my pain. Highly recommend.
I love Marina and her team. I have been struggling with feeling nauseous and fatigue after going through an IVF cycle and going twice a week has been working wonders for me. It’s literally the difference between being able to function and not function in life. I can’t recommend Pulse enough!
Exceptional service. Clean and calming rooms. Easy billing/insurance process. Would recommend!
Best Accupuncture in Williamsburg! Marina Laryssa are fantastic. Helped relieve pain for my marathon preparation assisting with Plantar fasciitis ITBs and stress. Great experience, very friendly, would highly recommend visiting them.
I have been very happy with the services of Pulse Acupuncture, the pain I have has greatly decreased with the Acupuncture.
Laryssa was fantastic. i can’t ever remember a provider taking the time and attention to my specific issues. highly recommend!
Marina is very professional, caring and extremely knowledgable. The office is peaceful and welcoming. I highly recommend Pulse Acupuncture for holistic care.
Laryssa is very empathetic and clearly cares about her patients. She’s passionate about her job and wants her patients to feel better. I’ve been seen by Marina a couple of times when Laryssa wasn’t there and I can say the same for her. Overall I highly recommend this acupuncture office.
I have been doing acupuncture consistently for 3.5 years, started with Marina almost 3 years ago and also started seeing Larissa this last year.Acupuncture has truly changed my life and has helped me in ways I didn’t even know were possible.I started doing acupuncture to balance my hormones after 2 years of unsuccessful fertility treatments. When I started seeing Marina, my periods were starting to be regular and I was dealing with a few different symptoms which we started treating right away (constipation, random headaches, body aches)… in the last 3 years I have not been sick (no flu, have never tested positive for COVID) - Marina even treated me for allergies more than a year ago during an allergy episode in changing seasons.Also want to mention Larissa as I started seeing her in Marina’s beautiful office and she’s also contributed to my wellness journey. Acupuncture is my favorite wellness practice, I see them regularly and have never felt better. I sometimes just tell them whatever I’m thinking/feeling knowing they will stick some needles in different places of my body and I come out floating and feeling so relaxed.
Marina is the most qualified acupuncture specialist I've ever worked with. I recommend her highly.
My symptoms have improved dramatically after just 3 sessions! She’s talented and kind, and uses various techniques that really make me feel like she’s taking a holistic approach to my health and emotional wellbeing. Cannot recommend her enough!

I visited Marina for back pain and digestive issues. My whole experience was positive. She is patient, empathetic, and very talented and knowledgeable. She used multiple modalities on my body (front and back) to address my concerns and treat the whole body rather than one part. I have been returning each week and I feel so good after.
Dr Marina is very best to find cure for your aches and pains. She tailors treatment with modalities that fit individual's ailments. You will get relief.
My partner and I have been seeing Marina for the past year now, and it's been a game changer for my health (anything from back pain to allergies). Since starting treatment all these conditions have become so much more manageable.Marina is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but also very calming and has great bedside manners.

Super pleased with my first appointment. Marina is very kind, knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend.
When I first came to Marina, I felt constant pressure in my lower back, tension in my upper back and lack of energy. During the first session I could literally feel something shifting inside in those areas she was working on. Her touch was so gentle that I didn’t even feel the needles go in. The time stopped, I was relaxed, calm and peaceful. Besides acupuncture I had some cupping done as well. The cups relieved a great deal of pressure from my upper and lower back. After the session I immediately felt the effect. Have my next session scheduled for next week. I would definitely recommend Marina to those seeking holistic ways to deal with muscle, spine, and pain issues. She is a miracle worker!
