How Cupping Therapy Works with Us

Your acupuncturist may decide that cupping would be an effective treatment for your condition and suggest the therapy. This is generally performed at the end of an acupuncture session. The cups are applied directly to the skin and are left on for 5-10 minutes to do their magic.

We use moving cups as well. This technique allows large areas like the upper back to be treated. We always make sure that your treatment is comfortable for you.

Cupping Therapy FAQs

Cupping therapy is an ancient practice that uses suction cups to create a vacuum effect on the skin. This process draws blood to the surface, encouraging improved circulation and the release of toxins from the body. By reducing muscle tension and promoting natural healing, cupping therapy helps address various physical and emotional conditions.

Cupping therapy is generally not painful, though some people may feel a mild pulling sensation during the treatment. The suction created by the cups can leave temporary red or purple marks on the skin, which are normal and not painful. These marks usually fade within a few days and are a sign of increased blood flow to the treated area.

 

Cupping therapy is known for its ability to relieve chronic pain, muscle tightness, and stress. It is also effective in addressing conditions like inflammation, migraines, and sports injuries. Additionally, this therapy supports overall wellness by improving circulation and promoting relaxation.

A typical cupping therapy session lasts between 20 and 30 minutes, depending on your needs and the area being treated. Your therapist will assess your condition and create a customized plan to target your specific concerns. Regular sessions may be recommended to achieve the best results.

Cupping therapy is generally safe, with minimal side effects. You may notice temporary redness, mild bruising, or tenderness in the treated areas, which are normal and usually resolve within a few days. To ensure a comfortable experience, it’s important to consult with a trained therapist who can tailor the treatment to your needs.
