North End Acupuncture Cupping Therapy
Cupping is a time-honored healing technique rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, known for its ability to ease pain, improve circulation, and promote deep relaxation. At North End Acupuncture, we offer professional cupping sessions tailored to your unique needs and wellness goals. Whether you’re seeking relief from chronic tension or support for broader health concerns, our licensed practitioners create a supportive environment where your healing journey can begin.
What is Cupping Therapy?
Cupping therapy involves the placement of glass or silicone cups on specific areas of the body to create suction. This gentle vacuum lifts the skin and underlying tissues, encouraging blood flow, loosening tight muscles, and stimulating the body’s natural healing response. While often associated with treating back and neck pain, cupping is also used to address a wide range of issues, including respiratory congestion, fatigue, digestive imbalance, and athletic recovery.
The sensation is typically relaxing, and many clients describe a feeling of warmth and release during the session. The marks left by the cups—often seen as circular discolorations—are not bruises, but a sign of increased circulation and detoxification, and they usually fade within a few days.
What to Expect During Your Cupping Therapy Session
During your appointment, your practitioner will begin with a brief consultation to understand your health history, symptoms, and treatment goals. You’ll then be comfortably positioned—usually lying down—so the practitioner can place cups on targeted areas. A gentle suction is created either by heat or a small vacuum pump.
You may feel a tight, pulling sensation as the cups begin to draw up the skin and underlying tissue, but it should not be painful. The cups may stay in place for several minutes or be moved along the skin in a technique known as “gliding cupping.” After the treatment, you might notice some redness or circular marks, which typically fade within a few days.
Sessions usually last around 30 minutes and leave many clients feeling relaxed, refreshed, and more mobile.
