Service Description

Indulge the rejuvenating effects of this ancient treatment. Our therapist will skillfully perform the Fire Cupping on the neck, back, shoulders, arms and legs to help stimulate blood flow, relieve muscle tension and aid lymphatic drainage.  This treatment will be combined with a Full Body Massage, to further target specific areas of tension and promote stress-relief throughout the body. Fire cupping is an ancient form of traditional Chinese medicine where fire is applied to glass jars and placed on the skin to create a vacuum effect. The warm suction of the glass jars creates a gentle pulling sensation on the muscles and promotes the release of tension and restoration of energy flow throughout the body. The cups are then placed on the body and left on those spots for some time and then will be moved around the skin in a dragging motion.
