Cupping Therapy

At Oriental Acupuncture & Herb Clinic, Cupping Therapy is performed by NCCAOM-certified practitioners with extensive training in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Each session is tailored to your individual constitution and health goals, blending time-tested technique with modern clinical standards.

Cupping uses negative-pressure suction cups placed on the skin to lift soft tissue, increase blood flow, and release deep muscle tension. The circular marks left by cupping typically fade in 3-10 days and indicate areas of improved circulation — they are not bruises and are not painful.

Cupping Therapy works especially well as part of a comprehensive TCM plan that may include acupuncture, herbal medicine, and moxibustion — all customized to your pattern diagnosis.
