Fire Cupping
Fire Cupping is another technique used to restore balance in the body. Cupping uses small glass cups and heat to create a suction on the skin. This suction creates a gentle pressure pulling the skin and superficial muscles upward toward the surface. We sometimes call it a reverse massage, since the vacuum creates a gentle upward pull, instead of pushing inwards. Cupping is used to activate the underlying tissues, increase circulation, and encourage local healing.
Cupping is commonly performed on the upper back to help treat respiratory conditions such as bronchitis and asthma, as well as being an effective treatment for muscle pain and tension. This gentle method can help reduce muscle tension, promote relaxation, and support overall well-being. Many find the experience to be soothing and rejuvenating, offering a natural way to enhance your body’s healing processes.
