“Where there’s stagnation, there will be pain. Remove the stagnation, and you remove the pain.”

The old Chinese medical remedy holds that pain results from the congestion, stagnation, and blockage. Chinese cupping is therefore a method of breaking up the blockage to restore the body’s natural flow of energy.

Cupping might be trendy now, lots of celebrities and professional athletes have brought attention to this ancient modality, however it’s not new! It dates back to ancient Egyptian, Chinese, and Middle Eastern cultures. it’s actually in one of the oldest medical textbooks in the world, the Ebers Papyrus, describes how the ancient Egyptians used cupping therapy in 1,550 B.C.

How it works.

Rather than applying pressure to muscles, it uses gentle pressure to pull them upward. This is a particularly relaxing and relieving sensation. I use silicone cups these are special cups placed on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. The cups can be gently moved across the skin (often referred to as “gliding cupping). I think this feels AMAZING!

People get it for many purposes, to help with body pain, inflammation, and as a type of deep-tissue. Cupping is beneficial and indicated for multiple disorders: (IBS), low energy, fatigue, anemia, normalizes body weight headaches, depression, emotional problems, arthritis,

*Important to know. Side effects of cupping are fairly mild. Bruising should be expected, but skin should return to looking normal within 10 days.
