This treatment is so authentic, it will make you speak fluent Chinese.

To anyone reading this on or after 1-20-24... this guy is gone. No longer works at this facility & no one else performs this technique over there... sadly. Still got a nice ½ hour massage but it definitely was not what you see here.

Every time I watch one of these I gotta put headphones in so my family doesn’t think i’m watching you know what lol

Doc’s smile during this was diabolical and I kinda like it.

I had horrid carpal tunnel years ago. I had a friend who lived on an Ashram outside of town with her mom. My parents never really liked me going there because it was home to a small local cult but the folks there all seemed so interesting and nice. One day I told my parents I was going to go because my friends mother was going to tutor me in algebra and they agreed. I went we did my lesson and after we were done studying my friends mom made us lunch. My wrist was hurting after writing all the math problems and her mom noticed and asked what was wrong. I told her about my diagnosis and that my doctor said I needed an operation. She suddenly grabs my arm, pulls it toward her and put her finger into a spot on my wrist so hard I screamed. She was a tiny lady and it felt like her whole body weight was on that one spot even though it was just her finger. It lasted a while and I was thinking the whole time omg my dad was right these people are nuts! I should never have come here to this weird commune! She finally let go and said it would be better. I was like yeah okay lady, ouch. We ate and I went home.
Anyways I passed my test and my wrist never hurt again and I never needed that operation.

This is actually full body myofascial release. These are built up muscle adhesions he is applying pressure to so that the golgi tendon releases and lets the muscle the relax. Its extremely painful along the side of the leg called the iliotibial band and calves or gastrocnemius. Hence the areas he experienced the most pain.

For those who think this is just acting, it’s not. These massages are extremely sensitive and painful! They vary per person, but generally they hurt. ALOT.

I've had this done, and while it is quite painful, you do feel a lot better afterwards when you'd swear you can touch your elbows together behind your back. It increases your range of motion and breaks up restrictive scar tissue. In America it's called nmt, trigger point, deep tissue, or sports/medical massage therapy. Good for weightlifters or people recovering from back surgery.

Xiaoma, I am addicted to your videos. I am getting a massage tomorrow, because of you. Yes, you make me want to learn more languages. Bless you and your sweet family.

I know all of these points. I’m a massage therapist and before hitting every point I sedate it so it won’t be as painful. It’ll be painful but not as much. I do a lot of deep work and I understand the benefit. I wish there’s someone like him where I live.

I’m obsessed with that doctor! So charismatic, kind, and knowledgeable! I would love to see more from him

[owlinadayswork]

i'll never not feel joy at seeing people switching between their native languages like this and being fully understood. it's astounding and endlessly wholesome 🥰😭

This man needs a YouTube channel. I am completely in love with him giving massages, he is very kind and funny.

I have a lot of deep tissue sports massages and after the first couple I started stretching like crazy so it would hurt less. It was quite interesting to see the overlap between what I medicinally believe in (nerves, muscle knots, toxins) and the traditional stuff (energy etc) overlapping into very similar results in how its done.

The Chinese style of massage (don't really know the technical name for it, sorry) is very deep and painful. However, how I feel afterwards is why I have returned to the same massage lady for a couple of years now. I am also autistic and being touched was TORTURE for me in the beginning but this style of massage has allowed me to become used to being touched by others without it being a shock!

[CaptCroctopus]

I’ve had a couple pressure point massages and they are beyond anything I expected. In the moment you think you’re dying, afterwards you feel grateful because you survived.

[douglasnewman]

I have honestly never seen someone in so much pain laugh so much. This practitioner is very obviously a real expert, AND he makes you laugh. An artist! Thanks for this, Xiaoma. Very entertaining and I didn’t feel a thing! :)

[frankieslight]

Dr. Phil is a magician with his hands ! He healed my back pain himself ! And He’s also a great guy 💪🏽

[zellykat]

I get this type done every couple of weeks. It gets easier to handle but if you are tense, it will hurt a lot. I appreciate the progress that has been made on my shoulder tendonitis and my sciatica. Big difference.

[capricorndragon]

Love that I knew all those points after years of hands-on experience. You can make a person cry, moan or sleep depending on the pressure of your fingers.
Glad you survived it.
