Massage Add Ons
- Cupping - Cupping applies small cups to the skin to treat minor soreness, irritations and soft tissue injuries as part of a larger massage treatment. This optional treatment sucks the air out of the cups creating a vacuum that pulls on tissues rather than press on them like typically massage. Caution: Clients can expect round bruising as a result.
- Hot Stone - The ultimate muscle and stress relaxer. Uses hot volcanic stones to melt away stress and relieve tight muscles.
