WHAT IS IT'S PURPOSE? Cupping therapy is a form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. It is for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.
HOW DOES IT WORK?: The suction and negative pressure provided by cupping has been known to loosen muscles, encourage blood flow, and bring the nervous system to a parasympathetic state (which makes it an excellent treatment for high blood pressure). HOW OFTEN CAN I DO IT? Treatments can be done as often as daily for acute problems and every other week for more chronic conditions. AFTER CARE:
