Chinese Massage Auckland – Traditional Healing with Tuina Therapy
Looking for authentic Chinese massage in Auckland? I offer Traditional Chinese Massage (Tuina) from my clinic in Albany, on Auckland’s North Shore. Tuina is one of the oldest forms of therapeutic massage — used for centuries in Chinese medicine to relieve pain, support internal balance, and restore the body’s natural flow of energy.
Whether you’re dealing with tension, injury, fatigue, stress, or internal issues like poor digestion or sleep problems, this hands-on therapy is a powerful and holistic way to support healing.
What Is Chinese Massage (Tuina)?
Tuina (pronounced “twee-nah”) is a core part of classical Chinese medicine. It combines deep tissue techniques, rhythmic pressure, acupressure points, joint mobilisations, and energy work along the meridians of the body.
Unlike general relaxation massage, Tuina is a therapeutic treatment that works not only on muscles and joints, but also with qi — your body’s vital energy — to help clear stagnation and restore harmony.
What Can Chinese Massage Help With?
Chinese massage is especially helpful for:
Neck, shoulder, or lower back pain
Muscle tension and stiffness
Fatigue or low energy
Digestive issues (bloating, sluggishness)
Stress, anxiety, and emotional imbalance
Sleep problems and restlessness
Headaches or jaw tension
Injury recovery
Tuina also supports overall wellbeing by improving circulation, calming the nervous system, and helping the body regulate itself more naturally.
What to Expect in a Session
Tuina is typically done fully clothed, but may also include the use of herbal liniments or oils depending on your needs. You’ll lie on a massage table, and I’ll apply a combination of techniques — from deep pressure and stretching to subtle energy-based methods.
Each session is tailored to your body and condition on the day. I may also integrate cupping, moxibustion, or gentle acupressure if appropriate.
What Sets My Approach Apart
I’m not just a massage therapist — I’m a qualified and ACC-registered practitioner of acupuncture, Chinese medicine, and Tuina massage. I’ve trained in traditional systems of healing, and also bring in knowledge from yoga, craniosacral therapy, and qi gong.
Every session is a personalised treatment — grounded, effective, and designed to help you feel better on all levels: physically, emotionally, and energetically.
ACC Treatment Option
If you have an accepted ACC injury claim, I can combine Tuina massage with acupuncture in the same session — with a $30 surcharge. This combination is especially effective for treating injuries, pain, and post-accident recovery. Leran more about ACC treatments click here.
ACC Treatment Option
In addition to Traditional Chinese Massage (Tuina), I offer a range of therapeutic bodywork treatments to suit different needs and preferences.

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy – for stress, anxiety, and nervous system balance
Relaxation Massage – to calm the body and mind
