My Meridian Point & Dry Cupping Therapy Experience



Hello Loves! I am baaacccck! Hhehehe... I know, I know it's been quite a long time since I made my last post on this blog. Sorry loves, I've been extremely busy with work and life. 

Recently, my muscles in my neck had tightened so much and radiated into my shoulders and back due to sitting for too long in front of a computer. Thank GOD, I was invited by DOCTE Botanical Research to try their Meridien Point Therapy. This invitation came at the perfect time!

WELCOME RITUAL


The therapist was very welcoming and made me feel relaxed the moment I stepped in. She introduced herself to me, and served a cup of hot tea for me to cool down. 

I genuinely felt like a QUEEN in paradise!

I was then ushered to a spacious, dimly-lit room and changed into the robe hanging in the room to get ready for a healing body treatment.



For your information, they really pay attention to hygiene. They keep all their towels and body wraps in a UV Sterilizer Cabinet to kill all the germs and unwanted species. They sterilize and disinfect in order to make the instruments clean and safe for use.  

THE TREATMENT

The treatment started by applying a thick gel on my neck, arms and back. The therapist applied slow methodical strokes from my neck, shoulder, arms and back with the instrument. It was so relaxing and I dozed off for a few minutes.

Next, the therapist proceeded with the cupping session. She placed warm cups on my back, shoulders and arms, and let it cool for 15 minutes. The cups were removed by lifting one edge, which allows the air to leak in and release the pressure.

MERIDIAN POINT MASSAGE INSTRUMENT


ABOUT THE INSTRUMENT

Docte uses the TCM method massage method combined with a sophisticated machinery instrument that helps go deeper to unlock knots in your muscles. It is a high-tech special instrument for cosmetology that integrates modern high-tech technology and medical cosmetology principle. It uses an ultrasound of 1 kilohertz and the mechanical compression and stretching of the 1 megahertz ultrasound to create a subtle vibration massage of 1 million times per second.

The instrument is equipped with a Unique titanium probe and with a special gel, the penetration can achieve 5-6 cm under the skin. Under the stimulation of high-speed vibration and various waveform, the cells and tissues in the deep part of the skin will produce a series of physical changes. The deep part of the skin will heat up rapidly. Accelerate the circulation speed of blood and body fluids, promote metabolism, lymphatic detoxification, and restore the cellular activity of the body. It also produces countless tiny air bubbles that encapsulate toxins and wastes in the body, breaking up the excess fat under the skin and removing it from the body. 

CUPPING THERAPY


ABOUT THE DRY CUPPING

Cupping therapy is an Ancient Traditional Chinese and Middle Eastern practice that provides pain relief and to dispel stagnation e.g. stagnant blood or lymph, thereby improving the flow of Qi energy in your body. This therapy involves placing the warm cups on the patient's skin to create suction. It helps to remove harmful substances and toxins from the body. This process helps to make you feel more energized because the process itself helps to eliminate negative energy from your body. If you are someone who always feels lethargy on a daily basis routine, dry cupping is something that you should try out

THE VERDICT 


SERVICE
A very attentive, friendly and experienced therapist. She accommodated to my needs, detailed and delivered the right light pressure to very precise points. Don't be afraid to tell your therapist, if you like hard pressure. 


AMBIENCE
I totally love the warm, relaxing and positive atmosphere. The room temperature was lovely and comfortable.


AFTER THE PROCEDURE....
Ok guys, you should know that I have zero pain tolerance, and so I felt a bit sore and some mild bruising after the treatment. Fret not, they began to improve within a week. Please be informed that feeling pain or discomfort after the treatment is perfectly normal. Any mild bruising happens will usually clear within a few weeks. 

The meridian blockages made me chronically tired and unwell. This treatment improved microcirculation, activated my Qi and unblock meridians of my various internal organs. It also helps relieve constipation. My tummy no more feels bloated.

Overall, I enjoyed the treatment and highly recommended this healing treatment who wants a relaxing evening.
