CUPPING THERAPY
Cupping therapy is an ancient Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practice. A TCM trained practitioner places practice-specific suction cups on the skin to create negative pressure, drawing blood and stimulating circulation, relieving pain, and balancing the body’s energy (Qi) by breaking up blockages. It is often employed to treat respiratory issues, muscle pain, and promote detoxification, but recent research has uncovered various other positive applications.
