Cupping
What is cupping?
This ancient method of treatment works by drawing Chi and blood to the skin's surface; the opposite effect of massage. Cups are applied with suction to the affected area. They can be left in place, moved around, or a combination of the two. Cupping therapy is very effective for relieving musculoskeletal and respiratory conditions, as well as for general detoxification of the whole body.

-
local pain relief and muscle relaxation
