Therapeutic exercises

At River Valley, we incorporate exercises into your visit to include stretching and strengthening exercises to improve flexibility; and range of motion and strength of muscles and their associated fascia coverings that are inhibiting your body from functioning optimally and causing you pain.

Cupping
Pain, particularly chronic pain, is a sign that the body is not functioning properly. Cupping is creating a partial vacuum on the skin by means of suction. Cupping is used to drain excess fluids and toxins, loosen adhesions and lift connective tissue, bring blood flow to stagnant skin and muscles to stimulate healing. Once proper function is restored then pain no longer exists.

Ear Candling
A safe, pain free cleansing the ear canal. If wax lingers in the canal it is collecting fungus and dirt. The heat from the lighted candle with the oxygen in the ear creates a gentle vacuum to draw the earwax out from deep in the canal. Ear candling can be effective in treating headaches, ear ringing (tinnitus) itchy ears, sinus problems and more and is even safe for children.
