Cupping is a traditional Chinese therapy that has been used for thousands of years to improve overall health and well-being. It involves the use of suction cups placed on various points on the body to relieve pain, increase circulation, and reduce stress. Cupping therapy is performed by placing glass, plastic, or silicone cups on the skin, creating a vacuum to draw the skin and underlying tissues upward into the cup.
At Vancouver Acupuncture Clinic, led by Dr. Su, cupping therapy is offered as a complementary therapy to enhance the benefits of acupuncture. By increasing circulation and loosening tense muscles, cupping can help to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. This ancient therapy can also improve digestion, boost the immune system, and promote relaxation and stress relief.
Cupping is a gentle, non-invasive, and safe therapy that is suitable for all ages and conditions. Dr. Su is a skilled and experienced practitioner who will tailor each session to the unique needs of each patient, ensuring a safe and effective experience.
