Ashiatsu massage is a massage specialty in which the therapist uses her feet instead of her hands and can be tailored to anyone able to lay face down and receive a regular massage, especially ideal for those seeking a deep tissue massage near Columbia.
Myofascial Release utilizes a set of gentle yet effective techniques, such as mild compressions and stretching, that targets the fascia (connective tissue surrounding bones, muscles and organs and keep them "glued" together). Restrictions in the fascial system prevents adequate circulation and can lead to muscle tension, pain, and malfunctioning of the body's organs. When the fascia becomes entangled and hardens, toxins get trapped, creating a series of symptoms that negatively affect your health. Restoring the flow and the flexibility in the fascial system allows the body to heal itself naturally to homeostasis (healthy balance).
Medicupping is a trademark massage therapy technique of vacutherapy by ACE massage cupping. During a Medicupping session, a cupping machine is used to allow the therapist to adjust suction level and pumping action while gliding, twisting, shaking, scooping the cups. Medicupping is like a "reverse massage" where fascia and skin is pulled instead of pushed to relieve pain and increase blood flow to ischemic areas. For more information, go to massagecupping.com
