Cupping therapy is a treatment that involves placing specialized cups on the skin to create a vacuum or suction effect. This process draws blood and tissue fluids toward the surface of the skin, which improves circulation, relieves muscle tension, and helps the body detoxify. Cupping is particularly effective for chronic pain, muscle tightness, and conditions like fibromyalgia and  headaches. There are different types of cupping, including dynamic cupping and static cupping, and the technique can be tailored to the patient’s needs. Many patients experience a sense of deep relaxation and relief from pain following a cupping session.
