Cupping with Acupuncture

Benefits of Cupping

Cupping is a great way to loosen tight muscles, help with back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and leg pain, stop or reduce upper respiratory symptoms, colds, and flus, and boost immunity.

Treats Muscle Pain and Beyond

While cupping can be used all over the body, it is best known as an effective therapy for neck, shoulder and back pain. Many do not know that cupping can also be useful for:

• Treating respiratory conditions like asthma
• Clearing chest and upper respiratory congestion associated with colds and flus
• Enhancing the immune system
• Calming stress and anxiety

Cupping enhances the effects of an acupuncture treatment, improves circulation, and remove blockages. It can create positive effects in many body tissues including the skin, muscles, blood vessels, nerves, and lymph.

Common Conditions Treated with Cupping

• colds & flu
• anxiety
• stress
• migraines
• immune system booster

What is a Cupping with Acupuncture Treatment Like?

The cupping part of the session involves cups placed on the skin (usually the back) and the creation of a vacuum. The vacuum causes suction which creates positive pressure on the skin, pulling it up into the cup and generating deep muscle relaxation. Our clients here in Washington DC really enjoy the feeling!

Cost of Cupping with Acupuncture
