What is Cupping?
Cupping is an age-old therapeutic technique rooted in traditional medicine across various cultures. This therapy involves placing cups on the skin to create suction, gently lifting the skin and underlying tissues. The suction draws stagnant blood and energy to the surface, promoting improved circulation and overall well-being.
How Does Cupping Work?
Picture a gentle embrace on your skin, stimulating a cascade of healing responses within your body. Cupping creates suction by placing cups on specific points or along energy channels. This suction promotes increased blood flow, relaxes muscles, and encourages the release of toxins. The therapy can be stationary or involve gliding cups to address specific areas of tension.
