Cupping is a method of treating disease by causing local congestion. Using a jar (cup), a mild vacuum is created (through a flame or mechanical means), and then applied to the skin. This causes the underlying tissue to be drawn into the cup and thus creating the local stagnation.

Cupping is used for a wide variety of symptoms and conditions which include:

– It is very good for muscle tension from stress, areas of stagnant Qi and Blood. There is no better effective way to treat blood stasis & localized cellular toxicity & congestion than with cupping

– Cupping has also been effective in treating asthma, allergies, cough, arthritic pain, GI disorders, menstrual pain, acute sprains (with bloodletting), common cold, as well as many other symptoms.
