What is Cupping Therapy?

​

Cupping therapy involves placing plastic cups on the skin to create suction, gently lifting the skin surface and underlying tissues. This suction effect helps to facilitate blood flow, loosen stiff muscles, and may assist in releasing fascial restrictions. It's a safe and non-invasive technique that can be used to help address a variety of conditions, from muscle tension and sports injuries to chronic pain and stress-related ailments. Our skilled physical therapists will customize your cupping therapy session to target your specific needs and goals.
