Cupping

An ancient Chinese therapy, cupping works by placing a plastic or glass cup on the skin and adding suction. The skin is well vascularized, meaning it has a rich blood supply; the suction of the cups has been found to increase circulation through dilating capillaries causing them to rupture, causes mild bruising which in turn, it promotes blood flow and lymphatic circulation. Cupping may help with:

  • Neck pain
  • Back & Legs pain
  • Knee pain
  • Tension headaches
  • Muscle repair and recovery

Scraping (Gua Sha):

Chinese scraping, also known as gua sha therapy, is a form of massage therapy that involves skin scraping therapy using a Chinese spoon or specialized scraping tool. This ancient Chinese technique is used to relieve muscle tension and pain and is often used in conjunction with acupuncture for maximum benefit. Gua sha massage therapy can be used on various parts of the body, including the shoulders, to promote blood flow and stimulate healing. This treatment is performed by applying pressure with a  scraping tool or coin scraping across the skin, creating redness and promoting circulation. This ancient Chinese healing technique may offer a unique approach to better health and may aid in addressing issues like:

  • Chronic pain
  • Muscle aches
  • Muscle repair and recovery

How does it work?

Acupuncturists are thought to correct imbalances in the flow of energy through inserting hair-thin needles at points on the body. It is virtually painless when done by an experienced practitioner and insertion of these needles into the skin helps improve qi (pronounced "chee").

What are the advantages of acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a drug-free way to optimize health. Although drugs often require an increased dosage for the same effect, this does not happen with acupuncture because it allows doctors to immediately examine how well their treatment worked and adjust accordingly if necessary.
