Cupping Therapy

Cupping treatment involves placing cups on the skin and then creating a vacuum within the cup. As the tissue is drawn into the cup, this increases blood flow, loosens fascia or connective tissue, and is thought to stimulate healing.

Cups are placed on the back, neck and shoulders or the site of pain. Cupping may cause temporary bruising and soreness, depending upon the degree of suction created by the vacuum and the level of internal stagnation.

Cupping Therapy is a traditional form of Chinese medicine to remove stagnation and stimulate the flow of qi (chi). Qi is the flow of vital energy circulating through the body and the world around us, if the qi is disturbed, it can create stagnation (blockages) or imbalances in the body.
