Cupping Therapy

Cupping is a therapy that uses suction to relieve pain, spasm, and inflammation in muscles and joints.

Long used in traditional asian medicine, it has come into prominence in western medicine for treatment of joint and muscular pain.

Cupping can be used in conjunction with acupuncture or chiropractic. We commonly use it for neck, back, and muscular pain.

Our office uses a vaccuum pump and silicone cups to create the suction. The process is extremely comfortable and safe.

Some patients experience red marks after treatment though these are harmless and typically disappear in a day or so.
