Cupping

Cupping utlizes glass or plastic cups and a vacuum to help promote blood flow to the site of application. The resulting bruise dissipates over a few days after the treatment, and the typical usage is for aches and pains, but can be in a variety of conditions.


Glass Cupping

Glass cupping utilizes fire to create a vacuum on the skin, causing it to rise and redden while the blood vessels expand.

Plastic Cupping

A modern, gentle version of glass cupping — which utilizes a rubber pump rather than fire to create the vacuum inside.
