Cupping
Experience the Ancient Art of Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy is an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with a history spanning thousands of years. This technique involves placing special cups on the skin to create suction, which promotes the flow of Qi (energy) and blood, reduces inflammation, and alleviates pain.
What is Cupping Therapy?
Cupping therapy uses cups made of materials like glass, bamboo, or silicone, which are placed on the skin to create a vacuum. According to TCM, this suction helps to unblock the meridians and restore the natural flow of Qi throughout the body. By stimulating specific points, cupping therapy addresses imbalances and supports the body’s natural healing processes.

Improved Circulation: Enhances blood flow to the treated areas, which helps to nourish tissues and expel toxins.
Detoxification: Aids in removing toxins from the body by promoting better lymphatic drainage and improving blood circulation.
Stress Reduction: Balances the body's energy, relieving stress and promoting a sense of well-being.

What to Expect During a Session
During a cupping therapy session, our experienced practitioners will assess your health concerns based on TCM diagnostics. Cups will be strategically placed on your skin, typically on the back, to create a vacuum. The suction may be left in place for several minutes or moved around to achieve the desired effect. It’s common to experience some temporary marks on the skin, which are a normal part of the healing process and usually fade within a few days.
