Tui-na is one of the five branches of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and its practice is under the guidance of TCM theories and principles, which include Zang-fu, Five Elements and Eight Principles. It is a versatile tool also used as one of the four branches of traditional Chinese veterinary medicine (TCVM) to promote and re-establish health as well as restore injured tissues. It can be used as a primary treatment modality or an adjunctive treatment for most TCVM disharmonies. The cat, more than many other species, determines the specific Tui-na techniques they will accept. They are Yin-type creatures “with an opinion” that are in tune with their inner selves. It is important to remember that in practice, evenness and softness are particularly important for feline patients. Tui-na techniques must flow seamlessly into one another, beginning superficially then slowly, gently moving to deeper levels as “invited” by the tissues. Awareness, tissue feedback signals, mindfulness and respectful application of techniques are required for successful feline bodywork. This article is intended to help practitioners of TCVM enhance and expand their practice of TCVM for the benefit of their feline patients through the use of Tui-na techniques. It is also hoped, through knowledgeable guidance from their veterinary practitioner, that feline caretakers may come to appreciate that they can acquire powerful tools by which they may participate directly in the healing of their feline companions.
