Tuina
According to traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), children's physiological characteristics include immature and delicate internal organs, as well as underdeveloped qi and physical form. Pathologically, their organ systems are described as light and responsive, meaning they react quickly to both internal and external stimuli. Therefore, pediatric tuina must prioritize gentleness in technique. The applied pressure should not exceed 0.3 kilograms, and the depth of skin indentation should not go beyond 0.3 centimeters.
