Help with pain, inflammation, & circulation
Cupping therapy involves placing heated silicone cups onto the skin to create a vacuum. It causes the skin underneath to redden and rise as blood vessels expand.
Cupping is a form of traditional Chinese & Middle Eastern medicine and has been practiced for thousands of years, and many professionals today are trained in the techniques. It can help with back pain, neck pain, headaches, and many other issues.
Benefits of this type of treatment:
Release scar tissue
Reduce painful trigger points
Improve circulation
Promote mobility
Improve long-standing scars
Decrease toxins
Relieve pain
Improve lymph circulation
Stimulate the body to remove toxins
Studies have been done on cupping and show that it may remove toxins by stimulating the immune response and lymphatic function. When the flow of lymph is interrupted by buildup the body struggles to eliminate toxins and can deal with further issues like inflammation.
Lymphatic drainage massage is another great option to look into alongside cupping if you are concerned about detoxing. When your body’s systems are flowing properly, it can make a huge difference in the way you feel and interact.
