Neuromuscular Therapy - The addressing of trigger points in the body and realigning of the myofascial layer. This relieves pain fast. When the myofascial layer gets out of place in the body, mostly due to repetitive motion, it makes the muscles respond as if they were shorter, causing tension and pain. Neuromuscular Therapy reeducates the muscles to their proper length, thus relieving pain and increasing range of motion. This advanced deep tissue muscle therapy is very effective and gets great results fast. Neuromuscular Therapy pinpoints your problem areas and can be applied very light to very deep depending on the sensitivity of the client, and the client being as relaxed as possible.
Cupping Therapy - The separation of the skin from the myofascial layer, and that from the muscle tissue, allowing blood to flow between the tissue layers which removes stagnation and relieves pain. The stagnation of blood in the body, due to muscle tension, occurs in injured areas or fatigued areas. This causes a feeling of soreness or pain. Cupping helps to relieve soreness and pain by drawing the stagnant blood to the skin level, removing the toxic blood from the muscle tissue as well as pulling fresh blood into the muscles and other tissue layers. Treats internal, external, communicable, gynecological, and dermatic diseases, as well as diseases of the eyes, ears, nose and throat .
