During a cupping massage, the therapist places multiple silicone or plastic cups on the clients body to create a suction. The therapist will then either leave these cups in place for a few minutes or move them around. The suction created by the cups further encourages blood flow and fascial release. Cups are used to treat one area of the body and red cupping marks may be left on the treated area for up to a few weeks later. In addition to cupping, other techniques are applied during the massage including: Swedish, deep tissue, active releases, trigger points and myofascial techniques.

Acupuncture involves the insertion of very thin needles at strategic points of the body based on traditional Eastern medicine . It is commonly used to help treat : pain, fertility, stress, anxiety, depression, weight loss, smoking cessation, neurological symptoms and overall wellness.

Fire Cupping is an ancient form of therapy dating back thousands of years. This method is performed by using fire to create suction inside glass cups and then placed on the patient's body. The skin gets lifted from the myofascial and as blood rushes to fill the empty space, it brings in fresh nutrients and oxygen along the way. It increases blood circulation, releases muscle tension and promotes cell repair. The glass cups can be used statically or dynamically across the service area.

During this treatment, the acupuncturist will perform a brief assessment on the first visit (approx. 10-15min) to target your needs and afterwards follow through with a treatment that combines : fire cupping, acupuncture and massage techniques. Every treatment plan is individualized and based on your comfort level and goals.

Yoga therapy are 1-on-1 sessions that help in the treatment of any health concern ranging from physical, physiological to psychological. The therapist uses Yoga tools such as Yoga poses, meditation, breath work as well as lifestyle & diet recommendations in accordance with Ayurveda, the sister science of Yoga. This type of therapy follows the lineage of the great Krishnamacharya who is often called the “father of modern yoga” as he influenced most of the styles available to us now in the West.
