What is Cupping Therapy?
Cupping therapy is an ancient healing practice used to improve overall well-being by creating suction with cups on the skin. This suction breaks open tiny blood vessels beneath the skin, leaving red or purple marks while improving circulation and reducing stagnation in specific body areas.
Cupping therapy is a key treatment of holistic wellness offered at our Sunway TCM Centre to alleviate pain, detoxify the body, and promote healing.
How Cupping Therapy Works?
During your cupping therapy, a practitioner places cups on strategic cupping therapy points to create suction. This suction stimulates blood flow, removes blockages, and promotes lymphatic drainage.
The therapy targets trigger points, reduces inflammation, and improves the body's natural ability to heal. Cupping is especially effective for addressing pain, respiratory issues, and skin conditions.
Benefits of Cupping Therapy
Helps Reduce Muscle Pain
Cupping therapy encourages blood flow to specific muscle areas, flushing out inflammation and releasing trigger points, providing relief from chronic muscle pain.
Assists with Respiratory Issues
By boosting the immune system and breaking up congestion, cupping therapy helps alleviate respiratory problems such as colds, allergies, and phlegm in the lungs.
Improves Skin Attributes
Removing blockages detoxifies the body, reducing inflammation and acne while promoting healthier, more vibrant skin. Cupping therapy points are often used to treat skin conditions effectively.
Anti-Ageing Benefits
The improved circulation from cupping enhances skin texture and elasticity, combating signs of ageing naturally.
Increased Energy Levels
Cupping therapy eliminates toxins and negative energy, leaving patients feeling revitalized and energized, especially those suffering from stress and fatigue.
