Different Strokes for Different Folks: Customise Your Massage the TCM Way

Every body is unique — your lifestyle, stress levels, posture, and daily habits all shape how your muscles feel and how your energy flows. That’s why a one‑size‑fits‑all massage rarely delivers the deep, lasting relief people are looking for. At Qi Flow Wellness, we blend Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principles with modern therapeutic techniques to create a massage experience tailored specifically to your needs.

Whether you’re seeking relaxation, pain relief, improved mobility, or energetic balance, your session is customised to support your whole‑body wellbeing.

Why Customisation Matters

TCM teaches that discomfort arises when Qi and Blood become blocked or imbalanced. But the cause of that imbalance varies from person to person:

  • Long hours at a desk

  • Stress and emotional tension

  • Overuse from work or sport

  • Poor sleep

  • Cold or Damp accumulation

  • Postural habits

  • Fatigue or deficiency

A personalised treatment ensures we address your patterns — not generic symptoms.

Choose the Style That Fits Your Body
1. Remedial Massage

Ideal for: tight muscles, chronic pain, postural issues, sports recovery This targeted treatment works deeply into the muscles and fascia to release knots, improve mobility, and restore functional movement.

2. Relaxation Massage

Ideal for: stress, anxiety, poor sleep, emotional tension Gentle, flowing strokes calm the nervous system and help your body shift into a restorative state.

3. Tui Na (TCM Bodywork)

Ideal for: energetic imbalance, stiffness, Qi stagnation This meridian‑based technique uses rhythmic pressure, stretching, and mobilisation to restore the smooth flow of Qi.

4. Cupping Therapy

Ideal for: deep tension, stagnation, overuse injuries Cupping helps lift tight fascia, increase circulation, and release stubborn muscle adhesions.

5. Gua Sha

Ideal for: neck/shoulder tightness, inflammation, restricted movement Gentle scraping encourages fresh blood flow and reduces tension along the meridians.

How We Personalise Your Treatment

Before your session, your therapist will:

  • Ask about your symptoms and goals

  • Assess tension patterns and posture

  • Identify meridian imbalances

  • Tailor pressure, techniques, and focus areas

  • Adjust the treatment as your body responds

This ensures your massage is not only relaxing — it’s effective, intentional, and aligned with your body’s natural healing process.
