Fire Cupping

Cupping therapy is an ancient healing technique in which therapists place warm glass cups on specific acupuncture points along the body's energy meridians. By heating the air inside each cup, a vacuum is created that gently draws the skin and underlying tissue upward when the cup is placed on the skin. This process stimulates blood flow, loosens tight connective tissue, and activates the body’s natural healing mechanisms.

The vacuum effect produced by fire cupping expands blood vessels and improves circulation in the treated areas. This increased blood flow delivers essential oxygen and nutrients to the muscles while also aiding in the removal of toxins from the body. As a result, cupping therapy not only supports physical recovery but also promotes a deep sense of relaxation, making it beneficial for both physical and emotional well-being.
