Cupping

Cupping is believed to mobilise blood flow to the skin creating a mild immune response and increasing anti-inflammatory chemicals in the body. It draws stagnant blood to the surface and improves blood circulation to the tissues. It stretches tight muscles and fascia making it a beneficial treatment for athletes.
Fixed cupping – is where the cups remain in place throughout the treatment, and are normally left in place from anywhere between 5 and 10 minutes.

Moving cupping- is where the cups are moved during the treatment to massage the muscles. To do this the practitioner will use oil on the skin to allow the cups to move easily without uncomfortable friction.

Wet cupping- is the most similar to acupuncture. After the cup is removed, a small incision is made to the skin, and the cup is then reapplied to withdraw a small amount of blood. It is thought that this technique helps to remove toxins from the body and promotes natural healing.
