Service Description

Cupping therapy is an ancient Chinese therapy making a modern comeback in the Western world. If you've ever seen a picture of someone sporting purplish circular spots on their back that look like bruises, you've seen cupping. While the marks look intimidating, it's just the sensation that takes getting use to but isn't painful. It is said that the darker these mark are, the more toxins and stagnant energy you had in these areas. Cupping therapy works through suction or vacuuming of a small portion of your back at a time to draw blood and muscle tissue to the surface. If you suffer from tension, tightness or pain, poor circulation, low energy levels or inflammatory conditions, research indicates that cupping therapy could help. Cups are left on for anywhere between 5-10 minutes and are sometimes used in a sliding motion over the back. Add this service to any massage for $10.
