Cupping Therapy

**service currently unavailable**

Cupping massage is a technique that can be integrated into any treatment and that focuses on addressing any myo-fascial restrictions in the body. Cups that are positioned strategically on the body (based on location of pain, what movements are being restricted and what structures are involved). Air is removed from the cups to create a "suction" to help stretch and manipulate the myo-fascial connective tissue. Cups may be used in a stationary pattern or in a massage like motion.
