### Cupping

Cupping is the best deep tissue massage available and is able to give instant relief for muscle tightness, promote healthy blood flow, and aid in drainage and detox.

### Tuina Massage

A cross between physiotherapy, shiatsu and acupressure that uses the hands to massage soft tissue, acupressure, and manipulation techniques to realign muscles and ligaments.

### Gua Sha

In this therapeutic scraping massage technique, pain and tension in the muscle tissues is relieved by bringing stagnant blood to the superficial areas of the skin in order to be eliminated.

### Moxibustion

Moxibustion is a technique that involves burning a Chinese herb called Moxa (Mugwort) over the body to help treat deficiencies, increase Qi flow, and provide internal warmth to the body.

## What to Expect

Traditional bodywork comes in many forms to enhance your body's function and mobility.

During your first session, we will conduct a thorough assessment of your health, lifestyle, and any factors that may be contributing to imbalances. Based on this information, we will create a personalized diagnosis and treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. 

Each bodywork session is designed to alleviate tension, promote healing, and optimize well-being. Bodywork is often combined with [acupuncture](https://emergewith.us/acupuncture?hsLang=en-us) for optimal results.

*Dana is not only an acupuncturist and herbalist, but she is also trained in massage therapy which she used to help relieve the tension that I had in my neck and jaw due to teeth clenching and stress. Best of all, Dana is a great listener and a wonderful person. She really cares about her patients. I highly recommend her!*
