Acupuncture
Acupuncture
Acupuncture promotes and restores the energy balance of the body. Acupuncture helps against a wide range of ailments, from emotional disorders (anxiety, depression) to digestive complaints (nausea, vomiting). It reduces pain syndromes that arise as a result of an injury or a chronic disease, such as rheumatoid arthritis.
Acupuncture may also be helpful in treating neurological problems, such as migraines or Parkinson's disease. Acupuncture can also be part of a rehabilitation strategy, for example for people who have had a stroke. Respiratory conditions, including sinusitis and asthma, can be relieved with acupuncture, as can many gynecological conditions and infertility.
Acupuncture has also been shown to be beneficial in reducing fatigue and addictions as well as promoting overall well-being.

Guasha
What is guasha?
Guasha is a natural, alternative therapy that involves abrading the skin to improve circulation. This ancient Chinese technique improves health and helps against chronic pain. Scraping the skin is done with a smooth-edged instrument, which makes short or long strokes across the body. Prior to this, the area to be treated is rubbed with massage oil.
Guasha is intended to target stagnant energy, called chi, in the body and thereby treat inflammation. Inflammation is the underlying cause of several conditions associated with chronic pain. Rubbing the surface of the skin promotes the healing process.
Guasha is usually performed on a person's back, buttocks, neck, arms and legs. The treatment starts with a gentle pressure. Gradually, the intensity can be increased to determine how much power you can handle.
Does guasha have side effects?
As a natural healing agent, guasha is safe.
However, the procedure may temporarily change the appearance of the skin. Since it involves rubbing or scraping the skin with a massage tool, small blood vessels known as capillaries near the surface of the skin can burst. This can lead to bruising of the skin. Bruising usually disappears within a few days. Some people also experience a temporary indentation of their skin after a guasha treatment. The tools are disinfected after each treatment to prevent transmission of infections.
Guasha is also traditionally used with:
- Ailments that cause chronic pain such as;
- Inflammation
- Artritis en fibromyalgie
- Conditions that cause muscle and joint pain
- Hepatitis B
- Migraines and headaches
- Neck pain

Cupping
What is cupping?
A therapeutic cupping treatment involves heating and placing cups, usually made of glass, on the skin. By heating the air in the cup, a vacuum is created and when applied to the skin, the tissue is drawn into the cup. This increases the blood supply, loosens the connective tissue and stimulates healing.
The cups are often placed on the back, neck and shoulders or the painful area. Cupping can cause temporary bruising and pain, depending on the suction created by the vacuum and the level of internal stagnation.
Where does cupping originate from?
Are there different kinds of cupping?
The cupping can be performed on one spot on the body. The cups are then left in place anywhere on the body for between five and twenty minutes, depending on the nature of the treatment and the individual's condition. A general course of treatment consists of four to six sessions in intervals with a break of three to ten days.
The cupping can also be performed with a cup that slides over the body. This technique is traditionally performed on large muscle groups in the back to treat pain and muscle spasms. Massage oil is applied to the skin before the cups are placed, allowing the cups to slide easily over the surface of the skin.
In athletes, cupping can help increase blood flow to a particular muscle area. Numerous athletes of the Rio 2016 Olympics used cupping. This was easy to see from the circular markings on some American swimmers.
Cupping is also traditionally used with:
Cupping stimulates the local circulation of qi and blood in the area to be treated, eliminating swelling, pain and tension. By drawing impurities to the surface, it removes toxins from the painful area. It also stimulates blood circulation. Techniques such as cupping, acupuncture and massage have been shown to relax tissue and reduce inflammation.
