Abstract

Chinese Shoufa system and it’s characteristics, what is the distinction between Shoufa, Tuina, massage, manipulation, chiropractic?

Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) Shoufa uses doctors'hands as operating tools, and formulates treatment plans and methods according to the basic theory of TCM, anatomy and exercise physiology, and patients' needs. Historically, there are many kinds of translations about the treatment of diseases by hand in traditional Chinese medicine,such as manipulation, tuina, massage , but they actual are not the same meaning.

The use of Shoufa in the treatment of low back pain and knee joint diseases is a strong point of traditional Chinese medicine. Manipulative treatment of low back pain and knee pain should be based on the etiology of low back pain, patient's physique, anatomy, meridians and Jingjin theory.
