Cupping therapy is an ancient healing technique dating back to Egyptian times. The practice involves briefly attaching rounded inverted cups to certain parts of the body using a vacuum effect. Suction is created by the cups allowing for increased circulation to the specific area, reducing inflammation and muscle tension as well.
Cupping therapy can be used to treat a whole host of ailments. If you’re suffering from knee or back pain, muscle pain or soreness, or many other issues, cupping could be the solution. Call Regional Sport and Spine today at (219) 465-1140 to schedule an appointment.
