Cupping is a Chinese Medicine technique that is used to treat many health conditions, but I tend to mainly use it in my office to help with musculoskeletal pain.  It is traditionally considered more therapeutic for acute or recent injuries to tissues, but it is also very useful for certain types of chronic pain as well.

 

 

Cupping is a very powerful technique - more info can be found on my blog.
