‘Where there’s Stagnation, there will be pain, remove the Stagnation and you remove the pain.’

Acupuncture and Cupping, ‘more than half of the ills cured ‘is a famous Chinese Saying, supporting Chinese Medicine.
Cupping was established as an official Therapeutic practise in the 1950’s across hospitals in China. Used successfully by Swimmers and Athletes for stimulation of Immunity and for speeding recovery post competition.
In a typical cupping session, glass cups are warmed by burning a substance inside the cup to create a vacuum. A practitioner then places the cup upside-down over a specific area of the patient’s body. The vacuum anchors the cup to the skin and pulls it. Drawing up the skin helps to stimulate the flow of blood, balance the flow of energy, break up obstructions, and create a channel for toxins to be drawn out of the body.
