Cupping
Originating from Ancient medicine, cupping is a soft tissue manipulation tool which decompresses the tissue by suctioning the skin and facial tissue away from the muscle to improve blood flow, healing, improve flexibility, reduce trigger points, reduce connective tissue tension, and reduce pain.
Ancient Medicine For Modern Times
By improving blood flow, cupping promotes faster healing of muscle tissues, reduces muscle and joint pain, and enhances flexibility. It also helps break down adhesions and reduce the formation of scar tissue, which can result from past injuries or chronic tension.
Additionally, cupping can target specific areas of pain or discomfort, such as trigger points or knots in the muscles, helping to release them.
Cupping is also known for its detoxifying effects, as it encourages lymphatic drainage and the removal of waste products from the body. It's commonly used for conditions like back and neck pain, headaches, sciatica, arthritis, and even respiratory issues like congestion or asthma.
​
While cupping may leave temporary marks on the skin, these marks are usually not painful and fade within a few days. This marks a visible sign of the body’s natural healing response.
Cupping is often combined with other therapies like acupuncture, massage, or physical therapy for maximum results in pain relief and recovery.

Whether you're an athlete recovering from intense workouts, someone dealing with chronic pain, or just seeking overall wellness, cupping can be an effective, non-invasive option for improving your health and well-being.​
