Cupping is an ancient Chinese method of clearing local congestion. A partial vacuum is created in cups placed on the skin either by means of heat or suction. This draws up the underlying tissues. When the cup is left in place on the skin for a few minutes, blood stasis is formed and localized healing takes place.

Cupping therapy has been further developed as a means to open the ‘Meridians’ of the body. Meridians are the conduits in the body through which energy flows to every part of the body and through every organ and tissue. There are five meridians on the back that, when opened, allow invigorating energy to travel the whole length of the body. It has been found that cupping is probably the best way of opening those meridians and encouraging the flow of qi in the  channels.

Cupping has also been found to be a very effective form of myofascial release. The cups can affect the body up to four inches into the tissues, causing tissues to release toxins, activate the lymphatic system, remove stagnated blood, and encourage the flow of new blood to release muscle tension. Cupping is very useful and very safe and can be added to any massage treatment to enhance your results.
