Massage & Bodywork in Lewes Rooted in Chinese Medicine

Massage & Bodywork in Lewes Rooted in Chinese Medicine

Hands-on treatment is one of the oldest and most direct ways to support the body’s healing. In Chinese medicine, massage isn’t just about muscles — it’s used to move blood and Qi, release stagnation, support organ function, and calm the nervous system.

I offer one-to-one sessions in Lewes that may include a combination of Chinese medical massage (Tui Na), acupressure, and soft tissue techniques. Everything is tailored to you and your needs on the day.

What This Work Can Support

Massage and bodywork may be helpful for:

  • Muscular tension and pain

  • Injury recovery and rehabilitation

  • Circulation and lymphatic support

  • Menstrual or digestive discomfort

  • Nervous system regulation

  • Stress, anxiety, or emotional exhaustion

  • Chronic conditions that need steady, hands-on support

If you’re not sure whether this type of work is right for you, I offer a free 20-minute consultation to talk things through.

What Is Tui Na?

Tui Na (pronounced twee-nah) is the Chinese name for medical massage. It’s a hands-on therapy used alongside acupuncture, herbal medicine, and movement practice in classical Chinese medicine. The techniques may be gentle or more dynamic depending on your condition, and the treatment always works in harmony with the body - not against it.

It can be done through clothing or directly on the skin with oils, depending on what’s needed. Some sessions may focus on muscular release, others on internal function - for example, abdominal work to support digestion or hormonal regulation.
