Akabane is an ancient Japanese technique used to assess the balance and function of the meridians. Special incense is used to warm the jing points on your hands & feet, to treat energetic imbalances while allowing you to deeply relax. This treatment includes an acu-point release and hand & foot massage.
This ancient art of moxibustion (moxa) activates your energy centre through your abdomen, warming & nourishing you from the inside out! Balance your meridians through the power of fire combined with a deeply relaxing acu-point release massage. Effective for: sciatica, menstrual issues, chronic conditions, fatigue and immune issues.
Acting like needle-less acupuncture, heated cups are applied to acu-points on the skin’s surface, creating a vacuum and drawing up the underlying tissues in order to warm and move Qi and blood congestion. Cupping is effective for muscle and joint pain, arthritis, headaches, and menstrual issues.
Like cupping, only a Chinese porcelan spoon is used to stimulate Qi and blood circulation along the meridians. Chinese linament oils create heat to the acu-points, followed by stroking the surface of the skin to release stagnation. An effective technique for muscle pain and for early onset of the common cold.
This traditional Korean technique combines the simplicity of reflexology with the sophistication of 3000 years of oriental acupuncture. By using the hands as a map to the body, acu-points are stimulated with manual pressure point release to encourage balance in the body’s systems.
