Cupping Therapy

Discover the benefits of cupping therapy, a time-tested technique used for centuries to promote healing, reduce pain, and support overall well-being. We offer cupping as part of our therapeutic services. It's used as part of our occupational and physical therapy sessions to help further promote our manual therapy and soft tissue techniques. Cupping is used during sessions when it will help progress you towards your goals and maximize your outcomes.

​

What is Cupping Therapy?

Cupping involves placing specialized cups on the skin to create gentle suction to aid with:

​

• Increase circulation to targeted areas

• Relieve muscle tension and stiffness

• Reduce inflammation

• Encourage lymphatic drainage

• Support relaxation and stress relief

​

It’s a safe, non-invasive therapy that can complement your recovery, whether you’re healing from injury, managing chronic pain, or simply seeking to improve mobility and flexibility.

​

Who Can Benefit from Cupping?

​

• Athletes looking to enhance recovery

• Individuals with tight, sore muscles

• Those with mobility impairments, as well as nerve impingement

• Anyone seeking a natural approach to pain management

​

What to Expect

During your session, we tailor the cupping placement and intensity to your specific needs and comfort level. Treatments are typically combined with other manual therapies for maximum benefit. Mild redness or circular marks may appear after treatment — a normal and temporary sign of increased blood flow. We use static or dynamic cupping - meaning we keep the cups in place at times and we may move the cups along your targeted area to help aid with soft tissue mobility. You may also have a cup placed on you during certain movements or exercises to promote increased mobility.
