Cupping Therapy
Tuesday 3rd August 2021
Cupping is one of the oldest and most effective methods of releasing stagnation in the body’s tissues and organs. Other terms for cupping are: fire cupping, body vacuuming, and the horn method.
Cupping is the practice of applying a partial vacuum by means of heat or suction in one or several bell-shaped vessels (suction cups) to parts of the skin. This causes the tissues beneath the cup to be drawn up and swell increasing blood, lymph and Qi flow to the affected area. This enhanced blood flow under the cup draws impurities and toxins away from the nearby tissues and organs towards the surface for elimination. The time the suction cups are left in place varies according to the patient’s age and physical constitution, and the medical disorder being treated.
Cups can also be moved around the congested area with oils to create a deep penetrating massage. This is not painful.
Cupping is a safe, non-invasive and inexpensive technique. It is used to alleviate the pain and discomfort arising from disorders of the lungs and other internal organs, muscle spasms, joint pains, and numerous other conditions. This course is suitable for those who are already qualified in Anatomy & Physiology and Massage.
