CUPPING in ARIZONA

Cupping is a healing modality used by acupuncturists, massage therapists, and physical therapists that is a hybrid of therapeutic massage and acupuncture. Heat or suction is used to apply either specialized glass or silicone cups to the back, shoulders, abdomen, face or legs. It is good for all types of pain conditions, like low back pain, sciatica, herniated discs, frozen shoulder, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, headaches, migraines, rotator cuff injury, and any sprain or strain. There is a detoxification component as it also stimulates the Lymphatic system to circulate and remove cellular debris and proteins obstructing flow and perhaps causing swelling. This is one reason the complexion, abdomen, and legs are so much smoother after a cupping session. At Partners in Healthcare Naturally, we provide healing through cupping in Arizona, for Prescott and all surrounding areas.

In certain conditions it is necessary to use strong cupping, which causes painless bruising, but when that happens it brings much appreciated relief. There are other techniques that do not cause bruising that bring different healing properties. Soft silicone cups are used for the facial cupping to minimize bruising. The treatment is good for fine lines, wrinkles, dull complexion, swelling, sinus congestion, loose skin, and overall relaxation. We are working to detoxify the underlying tissues while promoting collagen and muscular strength.

Cupping therapy has a major effect on the lungs and respiratory system. The best body surface to cup is the back because there are acupuncture points that correlate to every major organ system, the entire lung field can be reached, and it feels really good! Cupping helps clear up colds, flus, bronchitis, pneumonia, and persistent coughs. It helps strengthen the lungs against infections, asthma, allergies and chronic lung disease. It is a great pediatric treatment; it can be gentle enough for children and no needles to cause fear. Lastly, it can be a good detox for the lungs from cigarette smoke or environmental toxins. Overall, cupping treatment is a pleasant treatment that brings both immediate and lasting relief.
