Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine. It involves placing a cup over the skin to create a suction effect, thereby pulling and separating the tissues below. The cups may be stationary or moved along the skin.
Cupping therapy assists with decompressing soft tissues, draining/moving fluids, relieving inflammation, calming the nervous system, stretching the muscles and connective tissue, loosening adhesions and increasing blood supply.
Cupping therapy can also aide in improved body awareness, perception and control.
