What you can expect during your appointment:
Your appointment time is dedicated to only you, so relax and enjoy the experience.
This is what will happen:
Cupping therapy is applied directly to the skin and you are covered by a sheet at all times except for the area being treated. The area of treatment will be analyzed for any skin issues. Then, you will receive a light massage/ Gua sha in the area of treatment, followed by cup placements on the area based on diagnosis.
The cups will remain in the area for an average of 5-20 minutes, depending on the treatment and skin reaction. Moving cups may also be used, depending on diagnosis made.
Most patients will only experience “a slight pinching sensation” during treatment. The resulting “bruising” from the skin being sucked up can on average last from a few minutes to a week.
No physical trauma (only cupping marks) are expected after treatment. Cupping marks that sometimes occur during and after cupping therapy are the waste products, toxins, stagnant fluids, known in Chinese medicine as "poisons" or "bad chi" that are brought from deep in the tissue to the surface for clearing.
For Stress Management Cupping Therapy, mostly moving cupping method is applied on specific stress producing trigger points. Session is 30 minutes.
For Overall Wellness Cupping Therapy, cups are strategically placed or moving cupping method is applied on specific Meridian trigger points and Charkas points, it is a hour session.
Facial Rejuvenation Cupping Therapy, involves the moving cup method, therefore It DOES NOT leave cupping marks on the face. Each treatment is about 20 minutes to 30 minutes in length.
For lymphatic drainage Therapy, moving cups are used strategically, moving the lymph fluid towards the lymph nodes to eliminate the waste. Each session is 45 minutes to 1 hour.
For Pain Cupping Therapy treatments help to improve body relaxation, removal of toxins and pain relief. Most patients see improvements after a few sessions.
For Cellulite and Scar Reduction Therapy, moving cups are used strategically in the area of concern. Sessions are usually 30 minutes to 45 minutes long.
For Gua Sha treatments, the area being treated is lubricated with oil. Using the appropriate Gua Sha instrument the area is stoked until the petechiae is raised. Treatment is normally a few minutes up to 15 minutes for each area.
If at any point, you are uncomfortable with any aspect of the treatment, please inform me and I will stop the treatment and ask you clarifying questions to address the discomfort.
Why not try them all to give you an overall wellbeing experience!
