Back pain – without surgery
Why an MRI doesn't tell the whole story, and how acupuncture treats back pain.
Pressure, mobilisation and stretching for pain relief
Tui-Na – Chinese Therapeutic Massage
Tui-Na is a Chinese therapeutic massage that combines point pressure, dynamic mobilisation and stretching to relieve pain and rebalance the body. It is done over clothing, and Yotam Sraya is a certified Tui-Na therapist.

Indications:
- Muscle and joint pain
- Orthopaedic issues and pain from prolonged sitting
- Tension and fatigue
- Improving circulation
Prolonged sitting – the silent disease of our century
Most of us spend most of the day sitting – a position that loads many muscles and the skeleton. The result: pain in the lower and upper back, shoulder blades, shoulders and neck. Tui-Na releases that load, and Yotam adds simple tips for posture and the working day.
Massage with a therapeutic aim
Unlike a relaxation massage, every Tui-Na movement is guided by the Chinese diagnosis – the relevant channels and points – so it combines well with acupuncture and cupping.

From patients
★★★★★Yotam is simply amazing. Calm and serene, endless professionalism and incredible knowledge. I came to him after a long period of back pain from sitting too much and, like a magician, he released all the pain and stiffness. Warmly recommended – you'll leave with a healthier body and peace of mind.
★★★★★The only one who truly helped me with two problems I couldn't solve for a long time. I didn't believe he could help because I'd tried everything, but I'm the happiest person in the world that I came to him. He helped me wonderfully – and he's also an amazing person to talk to about anything.
