Lots of muscle pain this week means it's time to call in our superhero: CUPPING. It’s seriously our fave.🟣🔴🟣🔴

Got sticky, crunchy, tight or cranky muscles? Try cupping! By applying suction to the skin, we are creating space and allowing lymph and fresh oxygenated blood to flow properly though the tissue. This in turn reduces inflammation, frees up restriction and promotes healing.

Whether you have an old injury or just have chronic pain or just want to stay ahead of “text neck”, cupping can help.

Nope, it doesn’t hurt. It’s hard to describe the feeling, it’s a little bit tight but mostly relieving and the feeling when the cups are released is often described as nothing short of heavenly.

The marks tend to be darker over areas of chronic pain or inflammation or just overuse (cc: Michael Phelps) and they typically fade in a few days. In the meantime, they make for a great instastory 😉.

We offer cupping as a complement to acupuncture sessions (at no extra charge) as we find they work best together vs cupping alone.

If you’re really hurtin’ we will often apply some of our favorite @HighlineWellness CBD cream on the area afterwards. We only use and sell CBD products here that are third party tested and share their lab results openly - Highline Wellness fits the bill. Head to our online shop today to get some for yourself, or better yet, come in for an appointment and let’s get cupping!
