Cupping therapy is an ancient healing practice rooted in traditional Chinese. It involves placing specialized cups on the skin to create suction, which gently lifts the underlying tissues. This technique aims to enhance blood flow, alleviate muscle tension and promote overall relaxation. Cupping is commonly used to address conditions such as back and neck pain, migraines, and muscle fatigue.
Gua sha is a TCM technique that involves scraping the skin with a smooth-edged tool to improve circulation and promote healing.
