Cupping Therapy

Benefits

Reduces Muscle Tension

Cupping therapy helps release tight muscles, providing relief from stiffness and soreness.

Enhances Circulation

The suction effect improves blood flow, which aids in faster recovery and healing.

Detoxifies the Body

Cupping helps draw out toxins, promoting overall health and wellness.

Eases Pain and Inflammation

Effective in reducing pain, especially for those with chronic conditions like arthritis or fibromyalgia.

Promotes Deep Relaxation

Cupping therapy helps calm the nervous system, reducing stress and promoting a sense of well-being.

Boosts Immune Function

By stimulating the lymphatic system, cupping therapy can help strengthen the immune system, making it easier for your body to fight off illnesses.

Treatment Approach

Our cupping therapy involves placing specialized cups on your skin to create suction. This technique gently lifts the skin and underlying tissues, promoting blood flow, reducing muscle tension, and encouraging detoxification.

1

Consultation

We start with a consultation to understand your needs and health concerns.

2

Preparing the Skin

We apply a light layer of oil to the treatment area to ensure smooth movement of the cups.

3

Placing the Cups

The cups are placed on your skin, where gentle suction is created. We may leave the cups in place or glide them over your skin, depending on your specific needs.

4

Relax and Enjoy

The cups are left on the skin for about 10-15 minutes while you relax and let the therapy work its magic.

5

Aftercare Guidance

We provide aftercare tips to help you maintain the benefits of your cupping therapy session.
