Cupping Therapy
Cupping is an ancient form of alternative medicine from 1550 B.C. in Egypt and spread across European and Asian civilizations.Ā
Cupping is performed when a vacuum is created to suction the skin locally, drawing the skin upwards.Ā Cupping can last for two minutes to fifteen minutes depending on the condition.Ā
Generally, it is used to promote the movement of blood flow, increase range of motion, decrease pain and promote healing within the muscles (myofascia). This technique is great for treatment of pain, deep scars, and swelling within the muscles.Ā In Chinese medicine, cupping is used to treat stagnation (stagnant blood, lymph, and qi).
