Throughout the body, the myofascial lines connect areas of the body that naturally appear distant. Multiple fascia lines connect the neck, shoulders, back, hips, glutes, forearms, hands, abdomen, and feet. They have been observed to simultaneously hold tension along with jaw tension. Each of these areas will be addressed with manual therapy, muscle energy techniques, or self-care instructions such as self-myofascial release, stretches, or exercises.

"Because the human body is made up of roughly 70% water, sound waves easily travel through like ripples in a pond. These ripples can break up physical blocks like tight muscles, or emotional blocks like stuck feelings."

"The role of the Acutonics Sound Healing practitioner is to identify where there is an imbalance and work with the body, mind, and spirit to ease it back into balance. This is accomplished through the application of precision-calibrated tuning forks on specific acupuncture points to access the meridian and chakra energy systems."

Cupping therapy is a decompressive technique that creates negative pressure, or suction, to lift up the skin and fascia. It creates a balanced feeling of relief that complements the compressive sensation of manual therapy through deeper levels of the soft tissues.

Discoloration in the skin can occur in a purple and bruising type of hue. The reason is because the capillaries under the skin experience a micro amount of tissue damage. This signals the body into a localized repair mode by increasing circulation to the area.

While the skin and fascia are pulled up, space is created that allows fluid, that may have metabolic waste in it, to be freed by way of the lymphatic system.

Stationary techniques, where the cups are left in one place for a few minutes, tend to leave marks on the skin. Whereas, gliding techniques generally will not leave any marks.

This is always an option whether or not you would like this incorporated into the session. Like all treatments, it is completely customizable and unique to you. Maybe one session, you would like this, but another session, you know you will have a wedding to go to and would not like to have marks on the skin. The marks generally take 3-5 days to dissipate completely.
