Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy is an ancient healing practice that uses gentle suction to promote circulation, relieve muscle tension, and support the body’s natural detoxification process. By placing specialized cups on the skin and applying various techniques—such as parking, gliding, scooping, suction and release, twisting, and vibration—this therapy helps draw out inflammation from deep within the tissues.

You may notice temporary red or purple marks, often referred to as "cup kisses," which indicate increased blood flow to the treated area. While some clients experience mild bruising, swelling, or soreness, these effects typically fade within a few days to a week.

Benefits of Cupping Therapy:

  • Alkalizes the blood

  • Improves circulation and strengthens vessel walls

  • Lifts and stretches soft tissue

  • Loosens adhesions and scar tissue

  • Relieves inflammation and pain

  • Moves stagnation and improves mobility

  • Sedates the nervous system, promoting deep relaxation

  • Liver, kidney, or heart failure
