MANUAL LYMPHATIC DRAINAGE (MLD) A therapy that offers gentle, slow manipulation of the tissue directing lymph (impurities) to be drained and released. Deeper breathing is encouraged while doing MLD, it will help with stimulation and to expel the impurities. MLD may assist with reducing pain, swelling and inflammation. MLD will also increase range of motion and improve the immune system. Limb mobilization and relaxation techniques are often combined with MLD. Manual Lymphatic Drainage is a treatment, not a massage. MASSAGE CUPPING THERAPY Offering a therapeutic massage incorporating silicone, plastic or glass cups. Massage Cupping Therapy will reach the deeper layers of muscle tissue, where the roots of congestion and pain may be based. Impurities rise to the surface of the tissue and may cause some discoloration marks; which will dissipate in a few hours while other markings may take up to 2 weeks. These discoloration marks depend on the extent of impurities being released. Massage Cupping Therapy promotes circulation, releases tension and stress, increases range of motion and will give you a sense of wellness. TEMPOROMANDIBULAR JOINT THERAPY (TMJ) TMJ is a disorder that affects the muscles and nerves of the temporomandibular joint. This joint is located on each side of the jaw and it connects the jaw to the skull. TMJ occurs when the muscles and nerves of the TMJ joint become injured or inflamed. TMJ can cause jaw pain in the jaw joint and the muscles that control the jaw; also may cause headaches and neck pain. Massage Therapy to the external and internal muscles may give relief to pain and tension. RATE SCHEDULE WE ACCEPT DOWNTOWN DOLLARS (BENICIA) SERVING BENICIA, CA.
