Chuna Therapy

It differs from person to person, and we will not claim it is "almost painless". Stiffness for a day or two afterwards is a common reaction, but this is not a treatment to endure — please tell us right away if it hurts. It is limited or not performed in osteoporosis, a history of compression fracture, recent fracture, previous spinal surgery, or pregnancy.
