Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy is a type of alternative therapy that originated in China. It involves placing cups on the skin to create suction, which can facilitate healing with improved blood flow.

Practitioners believe that this therapy can improve overall health by improving blood flow and promoting cell repair. It can also help form new connective tissues and create new blood vessels in the tissue. People use cupping therapy for a host of issues and conditions, including pain management, to speed up recovery, to reduce inflammation, and even to promote relaxation.

Cupping therapy might be used in conjunction with other treatment techniques like acupuncture and massage. However, it's important to note that while some find the practice beneficial, research on its effectiveness is still ongoing.
