Cupping

Service Description

This half-hour treatment of cupping can include “flash-cupping” (where silicone cups are used to glide over the skin, creating a massage-like effect); followed by the more traditional static cupping, where plastic or silicone suction cups are used to lift the layers of tissues in an affected area on the body. A suction gun is used to extract the air out of the cup, creating this pressure. Cupping has been used to treat a wide variety of conditions. It is particularly effective at easing conditions that create muscle aches and pains.
