Cupping

Move out the Old,
Bring in the New

The cupping technique made its way into many cultures around the world; either by there own understanding of the body or through interactions with other people.

​

This technique utilizes different ways of applying negative pressure (fire, pump, suction) within a glass, plastic, or silicone cup to produce separation in the soft tissues of the body. This pulls to the surface underlying, static fluid (we are not breaking blood vessels; these are not bruises) and allows space for fresh blood to come and nourish the body area.

​

Mainly utilized when there is the presence of tight muscles and fascia tissue, this techniques is also traditionally applied when there is the onset of a cold with tight, achy neck and body.
