TCM HEALTH WELLNESS TALK FOR STAFFS OF AHMAD IBRAHIM PRIMARY SCHOOL

Most working adults face physical discomforts due to their long working hours and inappropriate postures. It is also a misconception that only Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) therapies such as acupuncture or tuina can relieve those aches and pains. Acupressure massage is not only safe and simple to administer on yourself without the use of needles, it can also help alleviate pain symptoms and promote health and balance in individuals.

This 2-hour talk held on 30 Jun 2017 was customized to raise awareness on health and wellness, as well as equip participants with basic massage techniques and useful acupressure points for common ailments. There is demonstration by the trainers, as well as hands-on practice for the participants in locating the acupressure points. Other than acupressure massage, the speaker also shared some basic knowledge on Traditional Chinese dietary therapy and demonstrated live-brewing of a herbal recipe to promote general well-being.
