Overview

Cupping therapy is an ancient, non-invasive treatment that relieves pain, improves circulation, and promotes relaxation. Creating suction with specialized cups lifts the skin and underlying tissues to enhance blood flow, reduce inflammation, and ease muscle tension.

What It Is

Cupping uses negative pressure to:

  • Increase circulation

  • Reduce inflammation

  • Relieve muscle tension

Ideal for relieving musculoskeletal pain, aiding injury recovery, and reducing stress.

How It Works

  • Suction: Cups create a vacuum effect, lifting the skin.

  • Circulation Boost: Enhances blood flow and oxygen delivery.

  • Myofascial Release: Loosens tight muscles and fascia.

  • Lymphatic Drainage: Supports detoxification and reduces swelling.

Benefits

  • Reduces pain and muscle tension

  • Improves flexibility and mobility

  • Accelerates recovery after exercise or injury

  • Offers a non-invasive, drug-free approach to wellness

Our Approach

We incorporate cupping therapy into personalized treatment plans alongside other modalities like chiropractic care and soft tissue therapy. Techniques include:

  • Dry Cupping: Suction-only application

  • Moving Cupping: Sliding cups for a massage effect

  • Silicone Cupping: Provides controlled, gentle suction

What to Expect

Your session begins with an evaluation to create a tailored treatment plan. Sessions last 15 to 30 minutes, and temporary marks may appear, fading within a few days.

Experience a natural, holistic approach to healing that enhances recovery, reduces stress, and improves overall well-being.
