Cupping Therapy
MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE - MLD - Vodder Method
oncology massage
Cupping is the oldest and most globally practiced medical treatment in human history. This remarkable therapy employs negative pressure, rather than tissue compression, for a superior result in the wide array of bodywork techniques. Cupping increases blood circulation to the tissues, relieves pain, removes toxins from the body and stimulates the immune system. I use cupping to successfully treat neck and shoulder pain,whiplash and neck injuries, low back pain, muscles tension due to posture misalignment, forward neck syndrome, carpal tunnel syndrome and upper back pain and Pms syndrome. Cupping is also very effective in relieving anxiety, chronic fatigue ,stress and insomnia tension headache and migraines.
When cupping is combined with near and far infrared light therapy it enhances the benefits of the healing technique. light therapy provides effective relief for sore, stiff muscles and joints by directing heat deep into the tissues of the body. Light therapy produces heat both at the surface of the skin as well as deep into the tissues below. This increases circulation and brings fresh blood to the area to nourish the tissues and flush away any toxins that may be present. It is effective at relieving the pain and discomfort of ligament damage (sprains and strains), muscle spasms and chronic conditions like rheumatoid and osteoarthritis.
Keep in mind that cupping is contraindicated during women's menstrual cycle, pregnancy, for people on blood thinner medications and people how have a port or a pacemaker .

Shirodhara Treatment
Infrared Light Therapy
Infrared Light Therapy
Shirodhara is a well established Ayurvedic treatment and it has been practiced for thousands of years.
Shirodhara cleanses both the mind and the senses, allowing the body’s natural healing mechanisms to release stress from the nervous system. This improves mental clarity and comprehension.
It creates a meditative sense of awareness unmatched by any other treatment.
The flow of liquid in a shirodhara treatment is directed toward the ajna chakra, which is also known as the third eye.
This area of the forehead, is associated with the pineal, pituitary, and hypothalamus glands, which dictate the organization and regulation of all hormonal secretions. These hormonal secretions control not only the autonomic responses which control digestion, breath, and elimination, but they are also responsible for our emotional state.
Shirodhara effects the parasympathetic nervous system (also known as the “rest and digest system”), which conserves the body’s energy as it slows heart rate, increases intestinal and gland activity, and relaxes sphincter muscles in the gastrointestinal tract. This creates an unconscious consciousness during which the primal intelligence of our body can reorganize in a manner that leads to healing and well-being.
Some of the benefits of Shirodhara :
Reduces fatigue, Beneficial in sleep related problems, boost blood circulation, reduces high blood pressure , helps improve headaches and migraines , lower stress, anxiety and depression, improves concentration and it is beneficial for jet leg.

Infrared Light Therapy
Infrared Light Therapy
Infrared Light Therapy
Infrared therapy is a light-based method to treat pain and inflammation in various parts of the body. It is extremely effective when used in conjunction with cupping.
By temporarily raising the temperature of the area being treated, it increases blood flow and relaxes the muscles and tissues. Infrared light therapy is ideal for people who cannot tolerate deep tissue massage or require treatment in an area that is not easily accessible.
Infrared light therapy is quite effective when it comes to treating the pain and discomfort associated with nerve disorders. Sciatica and various forms of neuropathy can be effectively treated with light therapy. Chronic conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, fibromyalgia and chronic neck and back pain also respond well to this form of treatment. Patients with bursitis, tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome and various types of injuries can also receive relief. Edema or fluid buildup around injured or damaged joints can also be addressed with infrared light therapy.
Light therapy can be added to therapeutic massage with no extra costs.
