What is Cupping?

Cupping is an extremely effective, all-natural approach to healing. The term actually refers to a number of different methods and techniques within its practice, but that all share one common theme... suction. This "negative pressure" is created inside the cups that are placed on certain areas of the body.

Cupping can be viewed as the opposite of a massage. Instead of applying pressure down upon the body's muscles, the suction lifts the skin, tissue, and muscles upward.

The purpose of the suction is to encourage proper blood flow, relieve pain, remove stagnation, and pull out the toxins that can essentially lingering the body's tissues for years.

Cupping is an incredible resource for those looking for improved health and overall wellness, and is a valuable tool for those for those who are seeking to maximize their health benefits, as well as experience a reduction in pain and discomfort. And while it may appear that cupping only provides relief to one part of the body at a time, it’s important to remember that the entire body is interconnected, so multiple systems can be affected during each session. This is important to know when dealing with trigger points and referred pain.
