More then just relaxation! Massage Therapy can be used to reduce stress and tension associated with everyday life and occupations, as well as the discomfort caused by overuse of muscles and many pain syndromes. Massage is more than just a way to relax it also has many other physical and emotional benefits including, helping in the removal of waste products from the muscles, reduces muscle tension, increases flexibility, helps the healing process of injuries, breaks down congestion in muscles preventing adhesions, reduces anxiety, improve sleep and activates the body’s own self-healing mechanisms. Remedial massage is a general term applied to deep massage which is performed for a specific condition. It uses slow strokes and deep pressure across the grain of the tense muscles. It is applied with more pressure and to deeper layers of muscle than relaxation massage.

Myo-fascial cupping is the combination of negative pressure and massage movements with the use of a suction device. A cup is positioned at the area to be treated and, depending on the type of cups being used; a vacuum is created within the cup to draw the underlying tissue into the cup. The suction level can range from light to heavy, and the movements performed by the therapist can be stimulating or sedating. The produced vacuum creates a suction effect that increases blood circulation to the local area, relaxes muscle tissue, can help to prevent scarring and help with recovery of injuries.
The use of cups can leave you with “Cup Kisses” which look like bruising, these are caused by the suction bringing the toxins out of the muscles and up to the surface to be removed by the lymphatic system. These marks can last a few hours or even a few days.
