My name is Daniel Fields, I am an Oakland Ca native and a Tai Chi Qi Gong practitioner. I am a student of acupuncture at the Oakland Academy of Chinese Culture & Health Science(ACCHS) and currently finishing the Core 900-hour massage program at National Holistic Institute College of Massage, Emeryville (NHI). I plan to complete the 450-hour Advanced Neuromuscular program at NHI by summer 2016 and finish learning Acupuncture by fall 2018. I have also studied many forms of bodywork including Tui Na Chinese medical massage, Swedish massage, Deep tissue, Myofascial Release Therapy, and Sports Massage.
Many people suffer from mental, physical, and spiritual pain that severely impacts personal and professional life. I consider myself to be an Integrated Massage Therapist with an emphasis in Tui Na. This style’s origin is older than acupuncture and involves aspects of soft and hard techniques to improve mobility and stature. Tui-Na is in fact a complete system of medicine, giving it the ability to address both internal diseases and external injuries.
