Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy can help ease the tension in different parts of our body through the use of glass cups and a suction mechanism. The act of blood letting can aid in reducing inflammation and pain. When combined together, blood clots and stasis can be removed from the body and can bring almost immediate relief to chronic and traumatic injuries.

In the thought of TCM, cupping is understood to be about the restoring the flow of the life force to a proper and working state. Illness is often associated with some sort of interference to this flow of life energy. The application of cupping to the affected part of the body is understood to set in motion natural body responses that will in time help to restore the right ordering the energy and in turn restore health to the individual.
