Tuina massage is a Traditional Chinese Medicine bodywork system with a 5,000-year history, using approximately 25 distinct therapeutic hand techniques to address muscle tension, joint stiffness, circulatory impairment, and musculoskeletal dysfunction. At this Brno practice, Eva Hajská integrates Tuina with reflexology — the stimulation of reflex zones on the feet, hands, and ears that correspond to internal organs and body regions. Unlike general relaxation massage, both techniques are diagnostic and therapeutic: the practitioner identifies imbalances through tissue texture, reflex point sensitivity, and patient feedback, then applies targeted manual therapy to resolve them. This approach is clinically appropriate for a wide range: acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions, infants and elderly patients, pregnant women, athletes, and sports injury recovery.

In reflexology, specific zones on the sole and dorsum of the foot correspond to every organ and body region; applying precise thumb-walking, rotation, and pressure techniques to these zones stimulates the corresponding organ's function and circulation, and can identify areas of…
The combined session begins with a brief assessment of posture, movement limitation, and the patient's primary complaint. For whole-body or systemic complaints, the reflexology component often takes precedence, with foot or hand work forming the first 20–30 minutes; for localised musculoskeletal problems, Tuina bodywork on the affected region is primary. Pressure is calibrated to individual tolerance — from light to firm — and the practitioner…
