Cupping Methods

When we work on fascia we work on PAIN. Cupping allows negative pressure to lift one's tissue and release adhered fascia. The adhered fascia then causes restriction and dysfunctions in surrounding areas and creates an imbalance. The benefits of Cupping- -Analgesic-Manages pain -Relaxing -by stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system -It creates a fascial spreading -Increases circulation- Allowing for accelerated healing -Assist Lymph by creating negative space Causes of adhesions- >Injury >Posture >Under Activity >Stress >Surgery > Dehydration Posture is the #1 cause of fascial adhesions. And the #2 cause is Stress. Stress causes us to tense up and that creates a load on our fascia and muscles.

Deep Feet Bar Ashiatsu

Completed Deep Feet Ashiatsu in Exton PA with Kate Freese What is Ashiatsu? In the Japenese language “Ashi” translates to foot and “Atsu” into pressure. Ashiatsu DeepFeet Bar Therapy, is a barefoot massage technique in which the therapist delivers deep, broad, consistent pressure while utilizing their feet and body weight. Working with gravity instead of against it, Ashiatsu therapists are able to provide an effective therapeutic massage without causing pain or discomfort to themselves or the receiving client. Cream or oil is applied to the clients body making this deep therapeutic massage fluid and relaxing. Parallel bars are used above the massage table for balance, support and client safety.

This very well may have been the best deep tissue massage I have ever received! Steven was able to release some muscles that have felt locked for years. I am so looking forward to my next treatment.

Steven is always so welcoming and calming. He knows what my body needs and addressing my concerns while giving feedback on what he finds. His bodywork flows with even pressure and he creates a healing atmosphere.
