Cupping Therapy
What is Cupping Therapy?
Myofascial Cupping Therapy is a modified version of the ancient eastern style of Cupping. Simply put, fascia is the body’s connective tissue. It is a head to toe, inside to out, all-encompassing system of connective tissue found throughout the body. Your fascia provides a framework that helps support and protect individual muscle groups and organs. When fascia becomes tight or dysfunctional, it can lead to muscular tightness, pain, or discomfort. Cupping therapy, involving the placement of special cups on the skin to create suction, can help release fascial restrictions, promote muscle relaxation, increase range of motion, and prevent muscular injuries. It is sought after for various purposes, such as pain relief, inflammation reduction, improved blood flow, relaxation, and overall well-being, functioning as a form of deep-tissue massage.
Types of cupping therapy offered:
Achedaway Cupper:
The Achedaway Cupper is a cutting-edge cupping device that combines traditional suction therapy with modern technology for an enhanced therapeutic experience. Unlike conventional cupping methods, the Achedaway Cupper features an electronic suction mechanism with adjustable intensity levels, allowing for a customized and comfortable session tailored to each patient’s needs. It also includes red light therapy, known for its healing properties, which helps boost circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote faster recovery. With both continuous and pulsed suction modes, the Achedaway Cupper mimics the effects of massage, providing an effective, user-friendly treatment that’s safe for both clinical and at-home use. This advanced approach to cupping offers a dynamic, versatile option for pain relief, muscle recovery, and overall wellness.
Silicon cupping:
Silicone cupping is a modern adaptation of traditional cupping therapy, using flexible, medical-grade silicone cups that offer a gentler and more adaptable approach. Unlike rigid glass cups, silicone cups can be easily squeezed to create adjustable suction, allowing for controlled pressure that’s ideal for sensitive areas or for those new to cupping. This flexibility also makes silicone cupping particularly useful for dynamic techniques like “gliding” or “moving cupping” where the cups are gently moved across the skin to stimulate blood flow, promote lymphatic drainage, and reduce muscle tension.
