UK - London - Chinese anma street massage

A masseuse pushes the sore back of a street patient during the demonstration of an Anma acupressure treatment in a central London street. Anma is Japanese for 'press and rub'. Matching the stance of the practitioner wearing a blue tunic who puts his weight forward into the pressure point of the lumbar area, a young mother holds on to the pushchair of her young child. There are many different methods in Anma, including massage, acupressure, stretching But it is important to note that there are many different versions of anma. Many massage therapists in the west have adapted this old technique to work with their more modern methods. Most common is the stretching, pulling, and pulling of affected areas. This is done to try and achieve the release of muscle tension that in return will help to encourage the proper blood flow and lymph flow.
