Myofascial Dry Cupping
Myofascial Cupping involves creating a suction with plastic cups and a hand held vacuum pump which lifts the skin and can separate the layers of muscle lying underneath. In doing so, blood flow to the area is increased initiating the healing process and increasing the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the area.
This treatment can be used to ease muscle tension and improve flexibilty, reduce swelling and remove stagnant blood from the application area.
However, be aware that they will leave you with a hickey like appearance that may be red/purple/blue and can last anywhere between 1 -14 days.

Pregnancy Massage
A relaxing massage for Mums to be. Relaxing music will be playing, however you do have the opportunity to bring your own playlist to listen to during the treatment, whether that's a hypno-birthing playlist or sounds that you find relaxing. Although please be aware we are based in a gym and despite playing music, it doesn't block out all the noises! Please contact me if you'd like to know when the gym is usually at it's quietest for the best suitable time.
Please note - this is not suitable for pregnancies that have been deemed medically high risk e.g. history of quick births, high blood pressure, pre-eclampsia and more (if you are unsure, speak to your doctor or midwife before booking).

Manual Lymphatic Drainage
A light rhythmic skin pumping action to increase lymph flow and aid your lymphatic system in waste product removal. This treatment can help your parasympathetic nervous system, metabolism, menopause symptoms, fibromyalgia, water retention, lipeodema and much more.
However, there are certain medical conditions and history that would make this treatment unsafe. Dp not book this appointment if you have any of the following:
-
Severe allergy - needing to carry an epipen – MLD can stimulate a histamine release and the last thing we want is for you to go into anaphylactic shock!
-
Severe asthma – MLD stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system and vagus nerve which has potential to trigger severe asthma by narrowing the airways

Active Cancer

Cellulitis
-
Acute infection or inflammation
-
Untreated hypothyroidism
-
Untreated congestive heart failure
-
DVT
-
Fever
-

There are also some conditions and medical history that I may need GP consent for, so if you have any of the following, please get in touch so I can get more information and see if I need written GP consent to make sure it is safe for you to receive this treatment:
-
Treated cancer
-
Chronic inflammation
-
Thyroid dysfunction

Uncontrolled asthma

Hypotension
-

I will try and make this treatment as relaxing as possible by dimming the lights and playing music, but please be aware that we are based in a gym and despite playing music, it doesn't block out all the noises!
