Registered Massage Therapy

Massage Therapy is the hands-on treatment of the soft tissues in the body including muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints. It is an effective treatment approach that helps alleviate soft tissue discomfort that may arise from injury, muscular and joint overuse, repetitive strain, and chronic pain. Our New Hamburg Massage Therapy services can be therapeutically beneficial for people of all ages


Cupping Massage Therapy

Cupping Therapy utilizes negative pressure, creating suction to lift the connective tissue, rather than compress it down. The suction created by the cups releases tight/rigid tissues, loosens adhesions, and draws stagnant blood and metabolic waste from deep tissue to more superficial layers of tissue, where it can easily be flushed out of the body via the circulatory and lymphatic systems.

Cupping Therapy utilizes negative pressure, creating suction to lift the connective tissue, rather than compress it down. The suction created by the cups releases tight/rigid tissues, loosens adhesions, and draws stagnant blood and metabolic waste from deep tissue to more superficial layers of tissue, where it can easily be flushed out of the body via the circulatory and lymphatic systems. This simultaneously allows new blood flow and nutrients into previously-stagnant areas. There are “suction marks” that can occur from the cupping treatments. These are not bruises, they are metabolic waste and stagnant blood that have been freed from the underlying tissue and brought to the surface to be flushed out. The marks can last anywhere from a few hours to a couple of weeks and should not be tender to touch.
