How we treat your condition.
Alongside deep tissue massage, our Heidelberg therapists may use complementary techniques to enhance your results.

-

Myofascial Release
Gentle, sustained pressure on the fascia, the connective tissue around muscles, to release restrictions, improve flexibility, and ease discomfort.

Cupping Therapy
Targeted suction cups are used to increase circulation, release tight tissues, and support recovery from muscle strain or overuse.
