Cupping
Cupping therapy is a therapeutic method, which utilizes small rounded glass, plastic or rubber cups which are applied to the muscles using suction. They are placed there and either left in place for several minutes or moved up and down a muscle region. This therapy provides similar benefits as massage therapy does but instead of using downward pressure it uses decompression to take pressure off of muscle, nerves, and joints. This is a great way to help reduce pain and tension in a fast and safe way.
