Acupressure Massage (穴位按摩)
Acupressure is an ancient Chinese technique based on the principles of acupuncture. This involves the use of repeating finger pressure, without the needles, on specific points along the body. Acupressure is a way of accessing and releasing blocked or congested energy centres in the body. Chinese cultures believe the points to be junctures of meridian pathways that carry energy called Chi or Qi. This therapy can alleviate the symptoms of many health conditions, from PMS, stress, backache and headaches.

Acupuncture (针灸)
Chinese acupuncture is a more efficient technique than acupressure as it uses ultra-fine needles thinner than a hair allowing for a higher level of precision and accuracy. These sterile needles are placed in the skin. Placing is not painful because it is not deep. The therapist manipulates these needles to stimulate key points with exact precision. The result is more effective than acupressure massage in helping to relieve pain and discomfort for a patient. The first treatment takes longer than the follow-up treatments because it starts with an individual diagnosis of each patient to decide which placements are most beneficial.
People with heart problems suffering from irregular blood flow should not have acupuncture. Acupuncture should not be performed on women menstruating because acupuncture has a strong influence on our circulation systems. Massage is beneficial during pregnancy. It is not possible to do acupuncture during pregnancy because there are then two life forces living in the body of the mother.
Because acupuncture penetrates the skin, the parts of the body which were treated should be kept dry for at least four hours. Acupuncture manipulates the energies contained in the liquids of the body. Adding water or other liquids on the skin for the first four hours interferes in the creation of a new body balance.

Hot Stone Massage（热石按摩）
While all types of massage can help relieve pain caused by tense muscles, stiff joints or injuries, a hot stone massage provides greater relief due to the intense nature of the massage. The heat transferred from hot stones allow the therapist to penetrate deeper. You may find that a hot stone massage leaves you feeling physically better than oil or deep tissue massage, which do not incorporate heat. People experience heat differently so let your therapist know if you feel that the heat from the stones is too much, or that the pressure they are using is too strong. At no time should you feel any discomfort during massage.
Always check with your doctor before getting a hot stone massage. Individuals with certain conditions, including pregnant women and people with high blood pressure should avoid this therapy because the process is too invasive for them. But for the majority of people, the heat from the stones helps muscles to relax. Which allows easier manipulation deep tissues. Tense muscles make massage difficult. If your muscles are extremely tight or stiff, the heated stones provide the extra relaxation you need for the massage to be beneficial.

Cupping Therapy (拔罐疗法)
Cupping is an ancient Chinese method of causing local congestion. A partial vacuum is created in each cup placed on the skin through heat and suction, which draws up the underlying tissue. When the cup is left in place on the skin for a few minutes, blood stasis is formed and localized healing takes place.
Cupping therapy has been further developed as a means to open the ‘meridians’ of the body. Meridians are the conduits in the body through which energy flows to every organ and tissue. There are five meridians identified on the back. When stimulated through cupping it allows invigorating energy to travel the whole length of the body. Cupping therapy is one of the fastest ways of opening those meridians. It affects the body for up to four inches into the tissues, causing tissues to release toxins, activate the lymphatic system, clear colon blockages, help activate and clear the veins, arteries and capillaries, activate the skin, improve the appearance of stretch marks. Cupping is a most effective deep tissue treatment.

Gua Sha Treatment (刮痧)
Gua Sha is a very simple and effective traditional healing technique practised widely in China, Vietnam, and other parts of East Asia. During a Gua Sha treatment, a round-edged instrument is used to rub skin in a certain area of the body. Varying pressure is used to reach the subcutaneous fascia with a bit massage oil to stop any discomfort from friction. Gua Sha is a simple but strong method to reduce energy blockages.
With an effective Gua Sha treatment, the skin afterwards has a bruised look as all the stagnant blood and metabolic waste products come to the surface. This is probably one of the reasons why the technique is not widely practised in the West. The petechiae (which is the medical term for this marking that comes to the surface) normally fades after three days. The result of removing blockages in this way vastly improves the fluid and blood circulation.

Waxing (蜡脱毛)
Waxing is one of the most effective ways to remove unwanted hair. This method gives a clean, smooth surface and longer lasting result. Hair grows back finer because waxing pulls the hair out below the surface of the skin. In addition, waxing does not irritate or cut the skin as shaving does, so red bumps and irritations are kept to a minimum. Please arrive for your treatment freshly showered or we may refuse to carry out your waxing, and before your waxing please ensure hair to be removed, is trimmed to a maximum of 6mm in length. We use roller waxing with hot wax; this modern treatment is cleaner and more effective than some other methods, and causes less discomfort. Try waxing and feel the difference.
