If you watched the Olympics you probably have heard about cupping! But did you know it is a healing modality first used in Ancient Egypt, China, and the Middle East over 3,000 years ago?
Traditionally done with horn, bamboo, and fire, modern cupping uses silicone or glass cups and a hand pump to create a gentle vacuum, lifting a small area of skin into the cup. Cupping can leave a red or purple mark that lasts 2-7 days as a result of blood rising to the surface of the skin, but there are cupping techniques that leave no marks at all.
SO WHAT CAN CUPPING DO FOR YOU?
Relieve muscle pain
Improve blood flow
Encourage lymph circulation
Help general detoxification
Rehabilitate injuries like rotator cuff disfunction, plantar fasciitis, and neck and back pain
Improve respiratory and digestive function.
Come on in and see what all the fuss is about!
