What is Cupping?

Cupping is a natural therapy that was developed thousands of years ago and is still in use today. It involves placing cups on the skin and then creating a vacuum by sucking the air out of these cups. This causes the skin to be pulled into the cups and the blood to flow to the area. Cupping is said to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, and relaxation.

This type of therapy has been used for centuries by many different cultures. The earliest recorded use of cupping was in Egypt in 1550 BC. Cupping was also used in China, Greece, and Rome. Today, it is still used in traditional Chinese medicine and is gaining popularity in the Western world.

There are a whole host of benefits of cupping, a few of which we’ll outline below:
