  • Cupping was originally used in traditional Chinese medicine as a means of “drawing out toxins from the body.” It is used with different intent in Western medical practices today.

  • Cupping promotes blood flow to the injured or sore area. Doing this allows the injured muscles to receive blood and oxygen, which is known to facilitate tissue repair and remodeling.

  • We use cupping with clients who have low back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and ITB friction syndrome. It is most often used with clients who are experiencing chronic symptoms and/or have joint restriction and muscle tightness.

  • Cupping therapy is safe for the general population, but is not advised for those who are on any blood thinning medication. This is due to the skin bruising that occurs from the suction. Be sure to consult with your medical provider.
