The licensed practitioner at Blue Lotus Acupuncture Clinic helps restore bodily balance and replenish well-being with alternative medicine, acupuncture, and reflexology techniques. An in-depth consultation with a licensed acupuncturist helps guests pick which health issues the treatment should focus on. The pin-pusher will use light, filiform needles to prick the skin and bring about a slew of benefits, including pain relief, de-stressing, and improved tiddlywinks scores. Then, dip toes in the detox foot spa, a phalange Jacuzzi filled with water and saline that uses positive and negative charges that aim to release toxins stored in the body.
Finally, practitioners reward bodies with the client's choice of treatment, selecting from gua sha, cupping, or tui na. Gua sha, a Chinese medicine technique, employs trained hands to run a round-edged object across skin, stimulating circulation in an attempt to relieve coughs, stiffness, and nausea. Gua sha treatments temporarily redden the treated area of skin. Physique surfaces receive their annual vacuuming during cupping sessions, during which warmed glass vessels placed on skin create suction, exciting red and white cells in an attempt to lessen pain and facilitate healing. Tui na massage relaxes tendons and muscles in a targeted area using traditional techniques and occasionally calling on compresses, salves, or pain-battling nanobots.
