Cupping:
Cupping is an alternative method of releasing muscle tissue, where special cups made of plastic or silicone are placed on the skin to create a vacuum or suction effect. The suction pulls the skin and underlying tissues upward into the cup, which helps increase blood flow, and promote healing.
As a result of leaving the cups stationary for several minutes, deep circular bruises are likely to occur. This is normal and shouldn’t be cause for concern. These bruises typically take about a week to resolve.
BioFreeze:
BioFreeze is a topical analgesic gel used to relieve muscle and joint pain. It contains menthol as the active ingredient, which helps numb the area. This provides temporary pain relief by stimulating cold receptors and reducing pain signals to the brain. It is applied directly to the skin and can be massaged into the affected area for targeted relief.
Aromatherapy:
Aromatherapy is a holistic practice that uses essential oils from plants to promote physical, emotional, and mental well-being. It can help reduce stress, improve sleep, boost mood, and support the immune system. Clients may choose between lavender, tea tree, peppermint, orange, lemongrass, and rosemary essential oils during their session.
Cold Stone Facial:
A cold stone facial is a therapeutic facial treatment that incorporates the use of chilled stones made of marble to massage the face. The cold stones help to reduce puffiness, soothe inflammation, and tighten the skin. During the treatment, the stones are gently massaged over the face and neck to promote relaxation, stimulate circulation, and relieve tension. The cool temperature also helps to reduce redness and calm irritated skin. Benefits include improved skin tone, reduced swelling, enhanced relaxation, and a refreshed, revitalized appearance.
CBD Massage Oil:
CBD massage oil is a blend of cannabidiol (CBD), a compound derived from the hemp plant, and carrier oils like coconut or jojoba. When used in massage, CBD oil is absorbed through the skin, potentially offering a range of therapeutic benefits. It is known for its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving properties, making it effective in soothing sore muscles, reducing joint pain, and promoting relaxation. CBD oil may also help reduce anxiety and stress, improve skin hydration, and enhance overall relaxation during the massage.
