“All my teachings and recommendations come from a place of experience and dedicated practice. I will only recommend techniques I have practiced on myself many times.”

ACUPRESSURE

Uses touch to activate energy flow in specific meridians to relieve pain. The meridians are energetic pathways in the subtle body that cannot be seen but do travel along the facia or connective tissue. They are usually associated with an organ, chakra, element and emotion. Energy, or Qi, can accumulate, become stagnant or depleted along these pathways and in return cause suffering. Through acupressure, we can wake up these points to allow the Qi to move fluidly and alleviate discomfort.

Gentle finger-tip pressure is applied to corresponding points on the body for 1-5 mins. Bringing awareness in order to “wake up” the meridian. This technique can assist with pain, depression, anxiety, insomnia, muscle tension, deep rooted emotions, physical ailments, emotional blockages, self-regulation, menstrual issues, digestive issues, headaches, immune system, weight loss/gain, jaw/neck tension and so much more.

CUPPING

Use of gentle suction cup to move stagnant blood and Qi. This relaxes the muscles and provides fresh blood flow to the area which allows the energy or Qi to move more freely to these areas. May be used on the back, upper arms, and sides of the thigh (IT band).

*May leave a mark which will fade in a few days.
