Decompression for fascia that will not release.
This ancient Chinese therapy is a form of alternative medicine in which a local suction is created on the skin to stimulate the flow of energy. The negative pressure encourages circulation, loosens tight muscles, and calms the nervous system.
Not currently offered at Austin or Boulder. Our care team can coordinate a visit at the nearest clinic.
