DEEP TISSUE & TPT 

...is a form of massage that focuses on releasing the deeper myofascial restrictions of the muscle tissue, tendons & ligaments.  

​

Deep Tissue technique is widely used by Body Work Therapists, Physiotherapists & Osteopaths.  It is a specific massage that's employed to work below the superficial connective tissue with the intent of 'breaking' up old structural problems & allowing the free flow of nutrients & oxygen.  Deep strokes are used throughout this treatment with the inclusion of TPT (Trigger Point Therapy) to release Acute or Chronic Muscle Tension, Ischemic Pain & Long Term Negative emotions. 

​

DEEP TISSUE, TPT & MFR

Some Deep Tissue work on occasions needs Myofascial Release to be performed before your Deep Tissue Massage.  

So, what is Myofascial Release?  Myofascial Release (MFR) is a specialised treatment that releases resrictions within the fascial network (connective tissue), enabling 'stuck', hardened & dehydrated areas to become pliable, soft, mobile & hydrated.  Palpation skills are used to assess the structure & function of the body to determine which technique to use.  This technique can help relieve pain for long term/chronic symptoms, can restore muscle function & postural alignment, relieve physical & emotional strain.  MFR can help balance the body & promotes self-healing & relaxation.  After MFR has been performed, Deep Tissue Massage & Acupressure can then be performed continuing to work below the superficial connective tissue with the intent of breaking up of old structural problems & allowing the free flow of nutrients & oxygen.  Deep strokes are used throughout this treatment with the inclusion of Acupressure (also known as Trigger Point Therapy & Neuro-Muscular Technique) to release Acute or Chronic Muscle Tension, Ischemic Pain & Long Term Negative emotions.

CUPPING THERAPY

Cupping Therapy for Myofascial Release, Trigger Point Pain, clearing Toxins, balance Chi or for any ailment listed on SYMPTOMS TREATED page.

​

A brief explanation about Cupping Therapy, this ancient method of alleviating local congestion & stagnation of blood flow.  This method is favoured by millions of people throughout the world because it safe, comfortable & an effective treatment for many health disorders.  Massage cupping can help alleviate pain, decrease swelling, increase ROM (Range Of Motion) & speed up the healing process.  By creating negative pressure above the surface of the tissues, it decreases the pressure on the tissues themselves, allowing the tissue to be lifted upwards, thus changing the pressure on tissue structures such as nerves, capillaries & muscle fascia.  A partial vacuum is created in cups placed on the skin by means of heat & suction.  This draws up the underlying tissues up towards the cup.  When the cup is left on the skin for a few minutes (maximum of 20 minutes), blood stasis is formed & localised healing takes place.

​

Cupping Therapy has been further developed as a means to open up 'meridians' of the body.  Meridians are the conduits in the body through which energy flows to every part of the body & through every organ & tissue.  When these meridians are opened they allow invigorating energy to flow to travel the whole length of the body.  It has been found that that cupping is the best way open meridians.

​

Cupping Therapy has also been found to affect up to four inches into the tissues, causing the tissues to release toxins & stagnant blood, activate the lymphatic system, clear colon blockages, help activate & clear veins, arteries & capillaries.  

​

Cupping Therapy can help a large number of symptoms. Cupping Therapy is also used for Cellulite Vacuum Massage

CELLULITE REDUCTION

Gliding Suction Massage on the areas of Cellulite to help reduce the appearance of Cellulite

Cellulite Massage with the use of Glass Vacuum Cups, this is an effective way to reduce Cellulite.  Cellulite  is caused by fibrous connective cords that tether the skin to the underlying muscle, with fat laying in between.  As the fat cells enlarge (from accumulating fat), they push up against the skin, whilst the long, tough connective cords are pulling down.  This creates an uneven surface, creating a dimpled appearance, often referred to as Cellulite.  Many experts say that it is impossible to 'spot reduce' problem areas unless they know about Suction Massage.  Suction is basically the opposite of a 'normal' massage (positive pressure) as a gentle negative pressure is used to pull up the connective cords, to create a smoother, even appearance.  The suction between the cup & the skin causes the muscle & skin to slightly separate, whereby, cellular waste in the Muscles & Fascia is drawn towards the skin.  This helps the stagnant fat cells to 'break up' & that fat is directed to Lymphatic Drainage areas & exits the body​

...breaks up cellulite using suction & lymphatic drainage.  The cellulite is physically 'broken up', circulation is increased, fat & toxins are delivered to the lymph drain areas to be escorted out of the body.  An important aspect of this treatment is that it relaxes the fibrous connective cords that give the 'dimpling' appearance.  Spot Reduction is almost impossible to get noticeable results but with Suction Massage you can 'spot' reduce!

​

This non-surgical, non-evasive technique is safe & effective.  In most cases the only side effect is temporary redness especially if you opt for a vigorous treatment (the stronger the suction/vacuum the quicker results).
