古代稱推拿為按摩、按喬，是中國起源很早的一種治病防病中醫(yī)推拿的養(yǎng)生術。在還沒有中藥湯劑給人治病的時候，就已有用推拿的方法給人治病。推拿技術發(fā)展到今天已有五千多年的歷史。在隋唐時期，甚至出現(xiàn)了按摩博士、按摩師等職位。推拿療法的理論依據(jù)是以中醫(yī)的臟腑經(jīng)絡學說為指導的。經(jīng)絡是人體內(nèi)經(jīng)脈和絡脈的總稱。是氣血運行的通路，它們在人體內(nèi)彼此緊密相連，縱橫交錯，內(nèi)通五臟六腑、外絡肢體皮毛，從而構(gòu)成一個完整的循環(huán)系統(tǒng)，起著興氣血、通陰陽、養(yǎng)臟腑、利關節(jié)的作用。如果氣血循經(jīng)順利運行。那么人自然身體健康，如果氣血運行受阻，人就產(chǎn)生疾病。推拿療法就是能夠使經(jīng)絡暢通陰陽平衡，從而使人保持一個健康狀態(tài)。
推拿發(fā)展到今天名門各派有幾百家之多。各種手法五花八門，但他們都要求基本動作具備有力、均勻、柔和、深透的特點。因為，追宗溯源，所有推拿的方法均來自同一淵源。
推拿療法是一門普遍適用于老年、青年、兒童、婦女的治療方式，副作用少，應用范圍廣泛，可作為一種普遍應用的自我保健方法。但要達到因人因病施治，對推拿大夫的要求卻很高。要得心應手地運用推拿技術不僅要了解西醫(yī)學中人體骨骼、血脈、肌肉的解剖，還要掌握中醫(yī)經(jīng)絡學說，牢記各個穴位的位置。 推拿作為以人療人的方法，通常是指醫(yī)者運用自己的雙手作用于病患的體表、受傷的部位、不適的所在、特定的腧穴、疼痛的地方，具體運用推、拿、按、摩、揉、捏、點、拍等形式多樣的手法，以期達到疏通經(jīng)絡、推行氣血、扶傷止痛、祛邪扶正、調(diào)和陰陽的療效。
