Originally used for spiritual cleansing and energy harmonizing, this is an ancient technique that has many health benefits. Ear candling helps clear ear wax build up and debris in the canal, soothes sinuses, alleviates allergies, anxiety, tinnitus, vertigo and balance. It's a very soothing, calming treatment performed lying down in a quiet room. A gentle suction may be felt along with a soothing warmth, the rising air gently massages the ear drum along with regulating the air pressure. The candle works like a chimney drawing impurities up and away while equalizing pressure in the sinus cavities and ears. A soft crackling sound may be heard and, or some gently popping. Robin offers this treatment on its own or as a delightful addition to an Acupuncture treatment.

Cupping is an adjunct treatment which can be added to your Acupuncture session or act as a standalone treatment. Glass cups are applied on the affected area while creating a suction. Cupping works by moving new, healthy blood into the region, while also moving old, stagnant blood from the tissue, into the upper layers of the skin. This leaves what's called a cupping mark, which looks like a circular bruise. It should only last for a few days and go away.
Cupping works well on stretching tight muscles and fascia making the body more limber. It is also very useful for pain in most areas of the body including the neck and back. Cupping works well to clear congestion from the common cold and helps with calming in situations of anxiety.
