Cupping therapy is a traditional healing method where special cups are placed on the skin to create suction. This therapy is used to improve blood circulation, reduce muscle tension, and promote healing. It has been practiced in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Middle Eastern medicine, and other ancient healing systems for centuries.

How Does Cupping Work?

The suction from the cups draws blood to the surface, stimulating circulation and encouraging the body’s natural healing process. This can help with:

• Muscle relaxation

• Pain relief

• Detoxification

• Improved energy flow

• Muscle and Athletic recovery

What Conditions Can Cupping Treat?

• Muscle pain & tension (back, neck, shoulders)

• Arthritis & joint pain

• Migraines & headaches

• Respiratory issues (asthma, congestion)

• Digestive problems

• Stress & anxiety

What to Expect During Treatment

• Duration: 10-30 minutes

• Sensation: Mild suction, warmth, or pulling feeling

• Marks: Circular red or purple marks may appear but fade within a few days 

• Aftercare: Stay hydrated, rest, and avoid extreme temperatures after the session

Is Cupping Safe?

Yes, when done by a trained professional. However, it should be avoided by people with:

• Blood disorders (e.g., hemophilia)

• Skin infections or wounds

• Pregnancy (without medical approval)

• Serious heart conditions
