Cupping Therapy

What it is

Cupping places suction cups on the skin to draw fresh blood flow to tight, congested areas — TCM's classic way of moving stagnation and expelling damp-cold from the body.

What it helps with

· Stiff shoulders, back tension and muscle aches · Feeling "heavy", sluggish or cold · Recovery after long hours of sitting or physical work · Early signs of wind-cold (colds, chills)

Your session

After a quick assessment, cups are applied for 10–15 minutes. Expect painless circular marks that fade within 3–7 days — a normal sign of released stagnation.

Common questions

Do the marks hurt?

No — they're painless and fade naturally. Avoid cold showers and wind exposure for a few hours after.

Who should avoid cupping?

Let us know if you're pregnant, have very sensitive skin, or bleed easily — your practitioner will advise alternatives.
