Review of Tuina History
Warring States Period: from 475 BC to 221 BC. Tuina manipulation has
been recorded in the “Huangdi Neijing” or call “Inner Canon of Yellow
Emperor” that is a earliest medicine book in China.
Three Kingdoms period, The Jin Dynasty: from 220 A.D to 581 A.D.
Tuina technique was improved and Tuina books been appeared,
such as “Zhou Hou Fang”.
From Song Dynasty to Qing Dynasty: from 960 to 1911, had a lot of
Tuina books been appeared and technique much better.
Since 1958, Tuina has been get comprehensive development,
especially to use modern science approach to the study of Tuina.

TuiNa Actions
1) To reduce the pain.
2) To flow blood to particular area.
3) To activate the Qi in the channels.
4) To reduce muscle spasm.
5) To repair the damaged soft tissue.
6) To adjust joints, reset bone.
How Does Tuina Work?
The tuina can improve the skin and muscle
the blood circulation, strengthen the
metabolism of tissues and organs, and
promote gastrointestinal motility and antiinflammatory effect.
How Does Tuina
Work of Anti-inflammatory?
1) Increase content of Beta- endorphin (END) and
Catecholamine (CA) in blood to help the pain.
2) Decrease content of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5HT) in blood to reduce the pain.

Clavicl
Humerus
Scapula

Acromion
Glenohumeral joint
(2) Ligaments:
①Coracoacromial
ligament.
②Coracoclavicular
ligament.
③Glenohumeral
ligament.
④Coracohumeral
ligament.
(3) Articular capsule
(4) Bursa: Sub-acromial bursa and Sub-deltoid bursa
(5) Muscles
Deep: Supraspinatus, Infraspinatus, Teres minor and
Subscapularis, those are called Rotator cuff.
Superficial: Pectoral major, Biceps, Deltoid, Triceps, Trapezius.
Pectoral major
Biceps
Anterior muscles
Posterior muscles
(6) Tendons:
Supraspinatus Tendon, Bicipital Tendon, Subscapularis Tendon
(7) Blood Vessels and Brachial plexus
Brachial plexus
Axillary artery
Brachial plexus:
• The brachial plexus is composed C5, C6, C7, C8 and T1
spinal nerves.
• Those include a radial nerve, a median nerve, a ulnar
nerve.
① The radial nerve: C5-C8,T1 of spinal nerves.
② The Ulnar nerve: C8 and T1 of spinal nerves.
③ The median nerve: C5-C8,T1 of spinal nerves

2. Shoulder Movements
Abduction: 0-90°
Adduction: 0-45°
Extension:0-60°
Medial Rotation:0-90°
(Internal Rotation)
Flexion:0-180°
Lateral Rotation:0-90°
(External Rotation)
Ⅱ Differential Diagnosis and Treatment
of Shoulder Pain
①Supraspinatus Tendinitis
②Bicipital Tendinitis
③Frozen Shoulder
④Sub-Acromial Bursitis (Sub-deltoid bursitis)
⑤Arthritis of the Shoulder
⑥Cervical Spondylosis
1 Supraspinatus Tendinitis
• Definition:
The tendinitis is an inflammation of the tendons of the
Supraspinatus tendon.
The causes of supraspinatus tendonitis can be chronic
impingement and degeneracy of the tendon.
•
Symptoms
① Pain associated with arm movement .
② Pain in the shoulder at night, especially when lying on
the affected shoulder .
③ Weakness with raising the arm above the head, or
pain with overhead activity.
• Examination Tests
①Trigger point on the acromion.
②Lateral of Shoulder pain, or the pain radiate to neck
or arm.
③Examination test of shoulder abduction: passive
abduction the pain eliminated with shoulder in medial
rotation. The other way round, active abduction
shoulder in medial rotation posture the pain start 60° to
120° ( pain radian), under 60° and above 120° then the
pain disappear.
Ossification of Supraspinatus tendon
MRI
X-ray
Tuina Treatment
(1) GunRou (Rolling and Kneading) on the Deltoid for 3
minutes.
(2) AnRou (Pressing and Kneading) by thumb on the
Supraspinatus tendon for 3 minutes.
(3) YaoHuang (Rotating): passive rotate shoulder for 2
minutes.
(4) Abduction of shoulder by passive associate with
Pressing and Kneading for 3 minutes.
(5) Dou (Shaking) the arm for 1 minutes.
(6) Using heating pad 2-3 per day.

• Ashi point, IL15, TE14, SI10, SI11, IL4.
Retaining needles for 20 minutes.
2 Bicipital Tendinitis
• Definition:
Inflammation of the bicipital tendon which
is long head tendon of the biceps . It is
often associated with some sort of trauma
or overuse, and usually associated with
rotator cuff disease.
Symptoms
①Aching shoulder
②Shoulder pain when lifting heavy objects
③Shoulder pain when performing overhead
activities
④Tenderness over bicipital groove.
Humeral bicipital groove
bicipital tendon
Examination Tests
Yergason test
Neer test

②An: Finger pressing.
③Na: Grasping.
④Dou: Shaking.
⑤Yao: Rotating.
⑥Using heating pad 2-3 per day.
Acupuncture
• Ashi point, IL15, SI10, TE14, LU2, LU3.
3 Frozen Shoulder
• Definition:
causes limitation of motion in the shoulder
joint, that also called adhesive capsulitis.
In Chinese medicine, is called Bi Zheng of
wind cold, also called “fifty shoulder”.
Etiology of Frozen Shoulder
•
•
•
•
Age and gender
Endocrine (hormones) disorders
Shoulder trauma or surgery
Other systemic conditions
Symptoms
• Pain in the should.
• Most commonly affects patients between the
ages of 40 to 60 years old, and it is twice as
common in women than in men.
• Beginning the shoulder pain, and worse in the
night. Later pain less but shoulder movement
has been limited.
Tuina Treatment
• GunRou: Rolling and Kneading.
• NaRou: Grasping and Kneading.
• Flexion and external rotation of the shoulder
associated with pressing and kneading.
• Rotating.
• Shaking.
• Using heating pad 2-3 per day.
Acupuncture
• Ashi point, IL15, SI10, TE14, LU2, IL4.
4 Sub-acromial Bursitis
(Sub-deltoid bursitis)
• Definition:
Inflammation of the bursa which is located in
the sub-acromial or sub-deltoid. It is most
often caused by some sort of trauma or
overuse of the shoulder.
Symptoms
• Pain and weakness when the arm is lifted up
sideways through a 60 degree arc.
• Pain point at acromion or deltoid.
• Active arm movement is often restricted in
abduction only.

5 Shoulder Arthritis
• Definition:
Osteoarthritis is characterized by
progressive wearing away of the cartilage
of the glenohumeral joint. Also called wear
and tear arthritis or degenerative joint
disease.
Diagnosis
• Age: It usually affects people over 50 years of age.
• Physical examination of the arthritic shoulder usually
demonstrates limited motion in all directions with pain.
• Crepitus (the crunching sensation inside a joint) is
frequently found in shoulder arthritis.
• X-ray demonstrates evaluation of the arthritic shoulder.

Tuina Treatment
• GunRou: Rolling and Kneading.
• NaRou: Grasping and Kneading.
• Flexion and external rotation of the shoulder
associated with pressing and kneading.
• Rotating.

6 Cervical Spondylosis
• Definition:
that is due to deterioration related wear and
tear on the cervical vertebrae (bones) and
cartilage or disc of the neck. That affects
the brachial plexus lead to nerves pain
also.
Symptoms
• Cervical spondylosis typically affects only the neck,
causing pain and stiffness. When nerve compression
also is present, signs and symptoms of cervical
spondylosis may include:
• A stiff, painful neck
• Shoulder, arm or chest pain
• Tingling and pinprick sensations in the arms, hands.
• Numbness and weakness in the arms, hands.
Pathogenesis
1) Intervertebral disc herniation:
① Injury; ② degenerative changes.
2) Degeneration of cervical vertebrae:
① Osteophytosis of the vertebral bodies.
② Hypertrophy of the facets and laminal arches.
3) ligamentous and segmental instability.
Radiation of cervical nerves
Physical Examination
1) Cervical movement: Flexion 35-45°; Extension 35-45°;
Lateral bending 45°; Rotation 60-80°.
2) Tension arm test.
3) Percussion head test.
4) Spurling test.
5) Jackson test.
6) Compression shoulder test.
7) Traction test.
Tension arm test
Percuss head test
Jackson test
Compression shoulder test
Traction test
Imaging
• A spine or neck x-ray shows abnormalities that indicate
cervical spondylosis.
• A CT scan or spine MRI confirms the diagnosis.
• A myelogram (x-ray or CT scan after injection of dye into
the spinal column) may be recommended to clearly
identify the extent of injury.
• An EMG may also be recommended.
Treatment by TCM
