Chi Nei Tsang

Chi Nei Tsang Abdominal Massage Workshop – NDG

by Natalie Palmer

Starts May 6th at 10am - 2pm

2111 Northcliffe Ave, #11D, Montreal, Quebec H4A 3K6
Chi Nei Tsang is a form of abdominal massage that originates from traditional Chinese and Taoist practices. The term “Chi Nei Tsang” translates to “internal organs chi transformation” in English. It is a therapeutic and holistic approach aimed at promoting physical and emotional well-being by working on the abdominal area. This massage technique is based on the belief that the abdominal area is a central hub of energy flow in the body. According to Taoist philosophy, unresolved emotional issues, stress, tension, and energy blockages can accumulate in the abdomen, affecting overall health. Chi Nei Tsang practitioners use various massage techniques, acupressure, and breathwork to help release these blockages, improve energy flow, and promote healing. The massage typically involves gentle but deep pressure applied to different areas of the abdomen, focusing on specific points, pathways, and organs. It’s believed that by working on the abdomen, the practitioner can help balance the body’s vital energies (chi), improve digestion, enhance organ function, and address emotional and energetic imbalances.

Trigger Point Therapy Workshop

by Nicolas Faucher

Sep 6, 2025 from 10am to 6pm

2111 Northcliffe Ave, #11D, Montreal, Quebec H4A 3K6
Trigger Point Therapy is a technique commonly used by massage therapists to address localized muscular tension and pain areas. Trigger points are hyperirritable knots or tight bands within muscles that can cause referred pain and discomfort. Massage therapists can effectively release these knots and alleviate associated symptoms by understanding trigger point patterns and employing specific techniques. During a Trigger Point Therapy session, the massage therapist applies direct pressure to the identified trigger points. This pressure is often sustained or may involve gentle, repetitive movements to encourage the release of the tension held within the muscle fibres. The therapist may also incorporate stretching, deep tissue massage, or other complementary techniques to enhance the effectiveness of the treatment. Trigger Point Therapy can benefit individuals experiencing chronic pain, muscular imbalances, tension headaches, fibromyalgia, and sports injuries. By targeting trigger points, massage therapists can help relieve pain, improve range of motion, and restore optimal muscle function.
