Cupping Therapy$50 for 50 minutes
Cupping is a traditional practice from the West that uses suction to manipulate the bodies tissues. This technique carries an array of benefits for tight muscles by increasing circulation, moving lymph, and loosening adhesions. The cups may be moved in a gliding fashion across the skin, or left in one place for 3-7 minutes.
Cups may leave a mark on the skin that lasts for 2-5 days. Cupping treatments will include aromatherapy, warming salve, guided somatic meditation, and energy work. |
