Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is cupping?

​

Cupping is a healing therapy that uses cups and vacuum suction to increase blood flow near the surface of your skin. In turn, the process releases deep inflammation to alleviate various types of pain and dysfunction.  Experts aren’t entirely sure of the extent of the benefits of cupping therapy. However, they know the treatment breaks open dozens of capillaries near your skin’s surface. Your body then treats these areas as injuries that it must heal. Some people also theorize that cupping therapy clears toxins directly from the pores in your skin.  The team at Elite Chiropractic & Wellness evaluates your condition to determine the ideal placement for the cups. They can use cupping on various parts of your body, including your back, stomach, and limbs.
