What is Cupping Therapy?
Cupping has its roots in ancient China, where it was first documented by Ge Hong (281–341 AD), a famous physician who declared, “Acupuncture and cupping, more than half of the ills cured.”
Today, cupping therapy is widely used in both Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and modern sports therapy.
Massage therapists are increasingly turning to this therapy to address:
- Muscle pain
- Fascial restrictions
- Structural imbalances
- General wellbeing
- Save their hands
By learning cupping therapy, you’ll gain a versatile technique that is time-efficient and produces excellent results for your clients.
How Cupping Therapy Work?
A partial vacuum is created in glass cups placed on the skin using heat or suction. This process:
- Stretches fascia and soft tissue
- Increase ROM
- Encourages localised healing
- Improves circulation
For practitioners, it offers a unique way to enhance pain management, improve range of motion, and promote holistic wellness.
