What is cupping therapy?
Cupping therapy involves the use of small glass cups and the use of a heat source that is then placed on the skin for a few minutes to create suction. The use of cupping is similar to a deep tissue massage but less force or pressure is used to create the same effects. We often use plastic cups depending on where the cups are placed on the body.
Cupping helps relax muscle tension, pulls out toxins that are embedded in your body, helps relieve pain, helps remove inflammation, and increases circulation by improving the flow of blood and Qi. This is great for back pain, tight traps or shoulder pain.
If you are after further information, please check my facebook (@PaulAcuClinic) or instagram (paul_acupuncture) or contact me on 021 496 524.
We also treat other conditions such as sports injury, all pain conditions, chronic fatigue, digestive disorders, hypo/hypertesion, insomnia, stress and weight loss.

Calling All Puzzle Masters! Can You Solve This?
When John was six years old he hammered a nail into his favorite tree to mark his height.
Ten years later at age sixteen, John returned to see how much higher the nail was.
If the tree grew by five centimetres each year, how much higher would the nail be?
