But before she received treatment Liu was left motionless on the snow after falling in the women’s halfpipe qualifiers.
Liu hit the surface hard after catching her board in the snow, and was flung across the snow.
She fell awkwardly and immediately stopped moving, lying still on the snow.
Music was also cut from the arena as spectators watched on in silence.
It is possible she injured her head or neck in the collision.
Chinese outlet Xinhua Sports report her spine is unlikely to have been injured.
Liu may have fallen unconscious and she had to be escorted off the course on a sled by medical personnel.
The event was suspended for almost 10 minutes in total following the incident.
Liu – who took home silver at the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang – finished 14th in qualifying after scoring 62.75 on her first run.
But she missed out on a spot in the final, with only the top 12 making it through to the event on Thursday.
