Fire Cupping
About
Fire cupping is a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine where heat is added to a glass cup causing a vacuum effect when applied to the skin. The cups may be placed on the body and left in one spot for an amount of time moved around on the skin in a gliding motion.
By creating this vacuum effect, the cups drain or pull toxins out of the body and allow the blood to flow, breaking up stagnation and congestion.
Cupping is also extremely effective in relieving tension in your muscles. In fact, it is commonly noted that cupping has a similar effect to that of deep tissue massage. The treatment is highly effective to help with range of motion in the back, neck, and shoulders.
Fire cupping is a tried and true aspect of Traditional Chinese Medicine that has been used for thousands of years. As a natural way to increase blood flow, release tension and promote general wellness in your body, it is a great technique to add to your holistic health and self-care routine.
