Who can benefit from Cupping?
REQUEST APPPOINTMEnT
Dry cupping creates negative pressure through suction, drawing tissue into the cup to promote myofascial decompression, helping to alleviate discomfort, soreness, and tightness. The cups can be left static for 3-5 minutes while you rest or glide over the tissue for a dynamic effect. Another technique involves adding movement with the cups in place
