Cupping

Cupping is a traditional Chinese Medicine treatment. Circular plastic cups are placed onto the body using suction. This is a super safe treatment as no flames or glass is used in the treatment. The suction pulls the skin upwards into the cup and are left there for a period of time. This will increase blood flow, as well as draw out any stagnant toxins up from the muscle. This treatment will reduce inflammation, promote healing and reduce muscle tension and tightness.

An excellent treatment to relieve back pain, tightness and stress. The cups will leave a mark on the skin that can look like a bruise, however this is due to old stagnant blood and toxins circulating through the body. These marks will take a few days to disappear. Cupping is a very popular treatment for many different problems and concerns.
