What is Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)?

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a holistic healing system with roots dating back thousands of years. It is based on the understanding that the body’s health depends on a balance of energy, known as Qi (pronounced “chee”), which flows through pathways called meridians. When this energy is disrupted or blocked, illness or discomfort can occur.

At École Setsuko, we teach students how to assess and restore balance using TCM principles. This includes techniques such as pulse reading, tongue observation, and listening to a client’s symptoms. From there, practitioners create personalized treatment plans that may include acupressure, moxibustion (heat therapy), gua sha (gentle scraping), and dietary recommendations. TCM offers a time-tested, holistic approach to wellness that supports the body’s natural ability to heal itself.

What is Acupressure Massage?

Acupressure massage is one of the core branches of TCM. It works much like acupuncture, but instead of using needles, practitioners apply gentle, sustained pressure with their hands, thumbs, or fingers to specific points on the body. These points are located along the meridians and influence the flow of Qi.

Acupressure is an effective, non-invasive way to address a wide variety of conditions—from stress and muscle tension to digestive discomfort and headaches. It’s especially beneficial for children, those sensitive to touch, or clients who prefer a needle-free approach. By combining TCM’s diagnostic methods with the art of acupressure massage, therapists can provide deeply personalized and restorative treatments.
