Cupping
Cupping therapy uses fire-heated glass cups to suction the muscle, fascia, and skin to relieve pressure, pain, and tension from the area and surrounding joints and bones. By reducing tension in the fascia and muscles, the patient experiences relief and detoxification instantly!

How Does Cupping Work?
Fascia is the connective tissue that holds together the muscle to the bones, joints, tendons, etc. With stress, exercise, trauma, or over-use, the fascia can become very stiff and lead to tightness and pain.
Cupping very effectively releases facial tension in a matter of minutes and allows for renewed circulation, detoxification, and muscle relaxation. This is because the cups offer a focal stretch to create improved blood flow, detoxification via pores and tissues, and relaxed tension.
Bruising is a normal part of the cupping process and is indicative of the type of tension, toxins, and emotional stress held within the body. These marks are also diagnostic in building a comprehensive treatment plan!
This ancient therapy is also used to treat digestive issues (bloating, stomach cramps), respiratory issues (like cough, allergies, asthma) as well as detoxify the body from environmental, food, and emotional toxins.
Who Can Benefit From Fire Cupping?
Anyone suffering from tight, tense, stiff muscles will enjoy the stretching benefits of cupping. If there is pain and inflammation, it can be relieved by even one cupping session! For the best benefits, we recommend combining with Acupuncture for whole body and mind relief.
Fire cupping is also known for improving lung dysfunction from smoking, allergies, asthma, and more. And can also aid in digestive issues such as bloating, abdominal pain, and other stomach problems.
