Traditional suction-based therapy · Individual assessment
Cupping is a traditional external practice in which cups create suction on selected areas of the skin. The type of cup, level of suction and session length should be chosen by a trained practitioner after assessing suitability.
Balance · Heal · ThriveThe approach
Every session should begin with a conversation and a clear explanation of the approach. Your comfort, informed consent and practitioner assessment guide the experience.
Different cupping methods exist, including dry cupping and methods involving additional procedures. The practitioner should clearly explain the method offered, hygiene measures, expected sensations and possible temporary marks before proceeding.
Suction should be adjusted to the individual and should not cause severe pain. Let the practitioner know immediately about discomfort, dizziness or unusual sensations.
Cupping may not be suitable for everyone, including people with certain skin conditions, bleeding risks or other medical considerations. Share your health history and medications before a session.
