Cupping/Gua Sha

Service Description

This treatment uses cupping and/or Gua Sha (meaning "scraping") for the treatment of sore muscles, congestion, high blood pressure, and more. Cupping allows the tissues to release toxins—this activates the lymphatic system, removes stagnated blood, and encourages the flow of new blood in order to relieve muscle tension. Gua Sha has a similar function and is a technique of scraping the skin to alleviate fluid stagnation. One or both may be used during your treatment depending on the condition being treated.
