About us
Tom Relax was founded by Tom Tang who is a Chinese artist living in America.
Traditional Chinese Medical Massage also called Tui Na. The origin of Tom combines with Tui Na Massage should be tracked back to more than 30 years ago.
At the time, Tom, a freelance artist, was invited by Dr. Yongxian Sun, a famous Chinese Medicine and Tui Na Massage doctor in Mainland China, to draw all the illustrations of his important bookmaking illustrations of Massage and Treatment for Common Disease.
The book covers all the manipulations of Tui Na Massage, basic theories of Chinese Medicine, like Meridians and Acupuncture point, Tui Na Massage treatment methods of various physical diseases, etc.
This book is the popularization and clinical application of Tui Na massage, and is not only the painstaking work of Dr. Sun, but also drawn by Tom after serveral years of repeated revisions. Thus, Tom and Dr. Sun have made a good acquaintance.
Tom’s relationship with Traditional Chinese Medicine and Tui Na Massage unfolds here. Thanks to years of painstaking drawing and repeated discussions with Dr. Sun. Tom has the privilege of knowing and familiarizing himself with the essence of Dr. Sun’s career practice. Dr. Sun was born in a family of traditional Chinese medicine, which has an agreement upon not to leak any prescriptions and techniques to the outside world.
No doubt, Tom is very lucky to be able to pass on and often be instructed by Dr. Sun. At first, Tom tried to give massage to his families who were not well. Later, with everyone’s approval, Tom has helped lots of people to do Tui Na massage in his spare time. Others rate his technique as: accurate, thorough and fast.
Tom has always been a freelance artist. His artwork includes oil painting, sculpture, environmental art design and so on. Tom has a deep knowledge reserve and artistic creativity.
In the year of 2000, Tom bode farewell to his beautiful wife and daughter, taking his oil suitcase and simple luggage, and set out on his journey to the United States to realize his long-cherished with to seek roots in Western Art.
After coming to the United States, Tom lived a turbulent life for 1-2 years. During the day, Tom is a very popular masseur. In the evening and his spare time, Tom’s holding up his brush and continuing to explore his dreams. Time goes by so fast, during these 2 decades, Tom’s footprints are everywhere in the United States. New York, Albany, Rochester, Los Angeles, Dallas, Fort Worth, Arlington, Lawrence, St. Louis, and finally Vancouver. Tom always using his pure and kind heart, feels the amazing land of the United States and all kinds of people in it.
Now, Tom’s long-cherished wish not just publising a collectionof American Life and Art Works. He wants to develop and communicate traditional Chinese medicine and Tui Na Massage for the rest of his life. The essence by doing these lies in Tom’s love for the kind friendly and lovely American people. Tom wants to do his best to benefit the ordinary Americans. Chinese massage is such a medium.
Tui Na – Authentic Chinese Medicine Massage has a lot of benefits: eliminating fatigue, dredging channels and collaterals of human body, running Qi and blood, waking up the brain, invigorating the body and preventing diseases, balancing Yin and Yang, strengthening the vital energy, regulating the viscera, delaying aging, rejuvenating the skin, restoring the face, tonifying the kidney, anti-aging, dispelling diseases and prolonging life.
But how to make ordinary Americans enjoy and afford Tui Na is the question Tom has been thinking about all these years. He said “As a senior Masseur, time and energy are always limited. Every time, when I see the disappointed clients who cannot make an appointment with me, even some of the clients did massage from other therapists, but did not really get physical relief. I often wonder, how can I serve more people? Why don’t I create my own brand and then run the enterprise well? Only in this way can more people benefit!
Tom Relax started in late 2017. With his persistent belief in the pursuit of perfect craftsmanship, Tom spent a whole year devoting his ingenuity to building his first store with his team.
