Massage cupping is a lesser- known treatment that is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine. During a massage cupping session, small cups are placed on the skin to create suction. The suction in the cups causes the skin and superficial muscle layer to be lightly drawn into the cup loosening the muscles and tissue. This encourages lymph and blood flow, assists in the release of toxins, and sedates the nervous system.

Cupping is one of the best deep tissue therapies available. It is thought to affect tissues up to four inches deep to help treat pain , deep scar tissues in the muscles and connective tissue, muscle knots, and swelling.

Unlike traditional massage which utilizes downward pressure, cupping uses a negative pressure to lift, open and release the musculature and connective tissue. For most patients, this is a particularly relaxing and relieving sensation. The cups are generally left in place for 5-15 minutes while the patient relaxes.

Reflexology is a specific pressure technique applied to the feet where all the internal body structures and organs are mapped or mirrored in miniature. On the feet are reflex points which correspond to different organs of the body and by pressing or working on one of these points the corresponding organ is affected. If crystals or tenderness is felt in a certain area it is an indication of a blockage or imbalance in the corresponding organ or body parts. Crystals are waste deposits made up of excess calcium and uric acid that build up when the metabolism is not working correctly. The reflexologist will spend time working on these crystals and sensitive areas using the thumbs and sometimes fingers to help release the blockages and break down the deposits so they can be eliminated by the body. Reflexology is a safe noninvasive and a relaxing treatment. Its aim is to help the body to heal itself and to maintain a balanced state of health.

It uses gentle pressure on the head, neck, and back to relieve the stress and pain caused by compression. It can, as a result, help to treat a number of conditions. It’s thought that through the gentle manipulation of the bones in the skull, spine, and pelvis, the flow of cerebrospinal fluid in the central nervous system can be normalized. This removes “blockages” from the normal flow, which enhances the body’s ability to heal.
