Cupping is a type of treatment that involves the use of suction cups to apply pressure to the skin and underlying tissues. It is often used in physical therapy and other healthcare settings to help reduce pain, improve mobility, and promote healing.
How does Cupping Therapy work?
What is Cupping Therapy used for?
Cupping is believed to work by increasing blood flow to the area being treated, and by breaking up adhesions or restrictions in the tissues. It is often used to treat conditions such as muscle strains, tendonitis, and fascial restrictions, and is generally considered to be a safe and effective treatment option.
However, it is important to consult with a healthcare provider who is trained in cupping to determine if it is appropriate for you. Some people may not be suitable candidates for cupping, such as those with certain medical conditions or who are pregnant. Additionally, cupping can sometimes cause minor side effects such as skin irritation or bruising, so it is important to discuss any concerns you may have with the practitioner before starting treatment.
