π Serving Toa Payoh, Singapore | JK TCM
If you’re dealing with muscle tension in Toa Payoh, you might wonder: Should I try TCM massage or Western massage? Both have benefits, but they work differently. Let’s compare themβso you can choose the best option for your needs.
1. How TCM Massage Relieves Muscle Tension
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) massage focuses on energy flow (Qi) and pressure points to treat pain. At JK TCM in Toa Payoh, our therapists use techniques like:
- Acupressure β Targets meridian points to release blocked energy
- Hot Oil Therapy β Improves blood flow and relaxes stiff muscles
- Guasha/ Cupping β Reduces inflammation and tension
Best for: Long-term pain relief, chronic stiffness, and holistic healing.
2. Western Massage Options Near Toa Payoh
Western massage (e.g., Swedish, deep tissue) focuses on muscles and tissues directly. It’s great for:
- Immediate relaxation β Uses kneading and long strokes
- Sports injuries β Helps with recovery after workouts
- Short-term relief β Less focus on energy balance
Best for: Quick relaxation, post-workout recovery, and general stress relief.
