| |  | | What is Fire Cupping Therapy and how does it work?
Fire Cupping is an ancient therapy that has immediate health benefits. The healing effect is both energetic and physical. Using a negative pressure vacuum, specially designed glass cups are placed on acupuncture points along the back which correspond to the organ systems. This procedure is a powerful method to pull out toxins in your body.
Cupping promotes the circulation of Qi and interstitial fluids in your muscle and skin tissues. Circulating your Qi is essential in maintaining your health and well being. Cupping also loosens up your tight, sore muscles and fascia surrounding the muscle fibers which increases the range of motion and flexibility of the area.
How does it feel?
Cupping feels much like a deep tissue massage. Most of my patients find it relaxing and soothing.
