Dr Lola will be doing Auricular therapy at Radiance Yoga’s monthly sound bath!
Want to join!? Sign up is in the link!

Our theme for this month’s gong bath is ‘Resting in Gratitude.’ When we take some time to be bathed by the sound of the gong, the sounds provoke calmness, relaxation and peace. In that space, we can become more present to what we can be grateful to. Our practice will include some gentle movement, a short breath practice and an extended gong bath, PLUS an additional option of auricular acupuncture.

Ear Acupuncture (optional add on): This month we have a special guest, Dr. Lola Capps from Chrysalis Chiropractic in Del Ray Alexandria, to offer an optional add on of Auricular or Ear Acupuncture to your sound bath experience. The treatment for this gong bath consists of two small acupuncture needles placed in each ear which will activate the parasympathetic nervous system and relax the mind and body.

What to expect in a lymphatic massage?!
😌
During a lymphatic massage, your massage therapist will use gentle strokes to move the lymph fluid through your body to the lymph nodes.

There is a 2 step process:
1. Clearing -This step releases lymphatic fluid in your tissues.
2. Reabsorption- This step moves your lymphatic fluid to your lymph nodes.
