Cupping therapy

Cupping therapy is a traditional Chinese and Middle Eastern practice that involves placing cups at certain points on a person's skin. Suction in the cups pulls against the skin. This suction improves the flow of energy in the body and facilitate healing.

The benefits of cupping therapy include:

  • Cupping can alleviate symptoms by promoting blood circulation and improving cellular immunity

  • Muscle relaxation through the different types of stimulation cupping can provide may help a wide range of conditions

  • Cupping increases blood circulation to the area where the cups are placed. This may relieve muscle tension, which can improve overall blood flow and promote cell repair

  • Release of toxins

  • Decreases muscle tightness and increases range of motion
