Overview & Benefits of Cupping Therapy

Cupping therapy is a type of treatment where a healthcare practitioner (RMT, Physio, Chiro, etc.) places specific cups on your skin to create suction. This suction can assist with pain and inflammation relief, relaxation, and aims to increase blood flow. Cupping therapy can help reduce fascial adhesions, improving muscle and joint mobility. This treatment can be incorporated into a variety of treatments, including massage, physio, and chiropractic therapy.

Gaining skills in cupping therapy can set you apart as a healthcare professional and expand your service offerings to clients.
