🧠 Cupping: Why We Use It & How It Enhances Care 🧠

Cupping therapy uses controlled suction to help support soft tissue and circulation in targeted areas. Current evidence suggests that cupping may help with muscle soreness, tightness, and recovery — especially when paired with other therapeutic techniques.

✅ What Cupping Can Help With

• Improving local tissue mobility
• Reducing muscle tension and trigger points
• Supporting post-exercise recovery
• Complementing joint motion work

Research shows mixed outcomes depending on the condition — so we use cupping not as a stand-alone treatment, but as part of an individualized care plan. Integrating cupping with hands-on care and movement interventions often produces better, longer-lasting improvements.

📍 When We Recommend Cupping

We consider cupping when you have:
• Stubborn muscle tightness affecting joint motion
• Reduced flexibility due to soft-tissue restrictions
• Soreness lingering after activity
• A care plan focusing on movement restoration

💡 Our Integrated Care Approach

At Active Health Chiropractic, cupping is paired with:
🔹 Chiropractic adjustments — for joint alignment & mobility
🔹 Stretching — to improve muscle length & flexibility
🔹 Corrective exercises — to build strength & stability

Healing isn’t one dimensional — it’s a combination of motion, stability, recovery, and consistent care.
