CUPPING THERAPY

Cupping therapy is an alternative treatment that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This suction promotes increased blood flow, reduces muscle tension, and is believed to help with pain relief, inflammation, and relaxation.

Cupping therapy is generally safe when performed by a trained practitioner, but it may leave temporary marks on the skin that look like bruises. It's commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine, but it’s gained popularity globally due to its potential health benefits and endorsement by some athletes and wellness advocates.
