Body Cupping Kit by WTHN—this Traditional Chinese Medicine tool is used to promote blood flow to areas of tension or fatigue. The silicone cups can be suctioned to different parts of the body in order to relieve minor muscle aches, increase flexibility, support recovery and encourage healthy blood flow. This at-home kit provides all the tools you need to begin your body cupping routine and achieve relief from tension, aches and inflammation.
Dry Brush by TWR—there are MANY benefits of dry brushing & it is a relaxing way to prep your skin for your shower or infrared sauna. It’s no secret that dry brushing will have your skin glowing; the brush removes dirt, oil and dead skin enhancing the smoothness of your skin. Using a dry brush regularly speeds up the rate of blood circulation, which in turn, helps the lymph fluid flow through the body to remove toxins and pathogens through our pores. This can help rejuvenate our nervous system and the boost in circulation creates plumper looking skin. Dry brushing can be done daily or weekly depending on your skin sensitivity.
Tongue Scraper by TWR—tongue scraping is one of those practices you hear about often, but does anyone really do it? YES, they do! Scraping your tongue with a designated tool can help to eliminate bad breath causing bacteria, improve sense of taste, and encourage healthy digestion. The tongue is considered a microcosm of the entire body therefore, it is believed that tongue scraping helps to stimulate the organs. It is recommended to incorporate tongue scraping twice a day into your oral care routine.
