CUPPING THERAPY

Experience relief and rejuvenation,

enhance circulation and ease muscle tension.

Dry Cupping Therapy

Dry cupping is a therapeutic technique rooted in traditional medicine, wherein cups are placed on the skin to create suction. This process draws the skin and superficial muscle layer into the cup, purportedly enhancing blood circulation, relieving muscle tension, and promoting healing. Unlike wet cupping, dry cupping does not involve the removal of blood and is generally considered a non-invasive treatment.

Fire Cupping Therapy

Fire cupping involves a flame that is briefly used to heat the air inside a glass or bamboo cup before it is placed on the skin. The cooling air creates a vacuum, causing the skin to rise and redden as blood vessels expand. This method is believed to enhance circulation, alleviate muscle tension, and promote healing by drawing out toxins and stimulating the body's natural healing processes.

Gliding Cupping Therapy

Gliding cupping involves applying cups to the skin with suction and then gently moving them across the body's surface. This method combines the benefits of traditional cupping with the effects of massage, enhancing blood flow, reducing muscle tension, and promoting overall relaxation. It is often used to treat muscle pain, stiffness, and to improve lymphatic drainage, and is commonly incorporated into various therapeutic and wellness practices.
