CUPPING

Cupping is a vital part of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It is a powerful mover of stagnation in the body, designed to relieve tension and ease chronic pain.
​
The process involves the placement of glass cups that are suctioned on the body with the use of heat (fired). The skin is drawn into each cup, firmly pulling to address sore muscles and tightness. The cups will leave some redness/swelling/bruising, but don't worry, any discoloration will dissipate within a few days. This is just a natural part of the healing process due to changes in blood vessels.
