Cupping
Cupping is an ancient Chinese healing art. Its methodology is very simple. Glass or plastic cups are used in a state of vacuum to gently pull the skin and underlying connective tissue. Although the technique itself is simple, the therapeutic applications are complicated and nuanced. In massage therapy, it is used as a form of manual therapy. It acts to gently pull and separate stuck connective tissue. It is highly effective for individuals with old injuries or athletes who have over-trained and have stuck fascial adhesions. Many of our clients find relief with cupping that they have been unable to find with any other modalities.
