All rights reserved. 36791 1217 BB LEARN MORE ABOUT CUPPING THERAPY CUPPING THERAPY is an adaptation of an ancient technique. The purpose of this technique is to promote health and healing by loosening soft tissue and connective tissue, scarring and adhesions, moving stagnation and increasing flow and circulation. This therapy utilizes silicone or plastic cups to create suction on the body surface. These cups are moved over the skin using gliding, shaking and rotating techniques while gently pulling up on the cup, or may be parked for a short time to facilitate joint mobilization or soft tissue release. Suction reaches deep into the soft tissue, attachments and organs.
