Cupping therapy is an old healing technique that involves placing cups over the skin in order to make suction, which in turn stimulates blood flow and aids in healing. The theory behind this practice is that it can decrease inflammation and pain, improve circulation, aid the detoxification process, and help relieve tension in muscles. It is a treatment for ailments like migraines and back pain, as well as anxiety and skin issues such as acne.
Acupuncture, which is rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine, involves placing needles of a fine diameter into specific areas of the body. It is believed to activate your central nervous system, which releases substances that boost our body’s inherent healing capabilities as well as emotional well-being.
