Our qualified practitioner Shizu will conduct a proper assessment of your condition and tailor the treatment combined with the following techniques according to your personal needs.
Deep Tissue Massage
Firm pressure massage by fingers, thumb or palm, usually Shizu uses acu-pressure or trigger points that ease pain and stiffness.
Sports Massage
Loosening up muscle tissues by stretching, tapping or kneading. Physically removing blockage and encouraging good blood flow for body adjustment and healing of injuries. Body preparation and maintenance of your best performance.
Relaxation
Gentle touch strokes easing your mind and facilitating awareness of your body. This will stimulate receptors in some areas of the brain.
Cupping
Cupping therapy involves creating a suction force to pull blood into the skin. Cupping will help muscle relaxation, changes in local tissue structures and increase in blood circulation. Cupping can be combined with remedial massage but if you specifically want cupping to be added, please feel free to request!
