Cupping

Cupping Therapy involves placing silicone or plastic cups on the skin to create a vacuum by suctioning out the air. The underlying tissue is raised partially into the cup. The purpose of cupping is to enhance blood and lymph circulation, relieve pain, remove toxins and release muscle tension. You may recall when Olympic Gold Medalist Michael Phelps appeared in the 2016 Rio Olympic Games showcasing his cupping therapy.
