Cupping Treatment

What is a Cupping Treatment?

Cupping is wonderful technique that can improve your health and provide numerous benefits. Cupping is like an inverse way of massage. Rather than applying pressure to muscles, the suction uses pressure to pull skin, tissue and muscles upward.
Cupping was developed thousands of years ago and though the techniques have modernized, the original philosophy remains the same.

How does the Cupping Treatment work?

Cupping involves placing glass, on the skin and creating a vacuum by suctioning out the air. The underlying tissue is raised, or sucked, partway into the cup. The purpose of cupping is to enhance circulation, help relieve pain, remove “heat” and pull out the toxins that are hanging in your body’s tissues.

You usually will feel a tight sensation in the area of the cup. Often, this sensation is relaxing and soothing. Depending on your comfort and your practitioner’s assessment of the problem, cups may be moved around or left in place. They may remain on your body briefly or for longer amounts of time.

Cupping causes the skin to temporarily turn red, blue or purple, especially if there is an injury or energetic blockage under the area that was cupped. The skin discoloration can last anywhere from a few days to a couple of weeks, but is rarely painful. Once the marks have cleared, the procedure can be repeated until the condition or ailment is resolved.

What does the Cupping Treatment help you with?

Cupping has numerous benefits — it can help remove toxins from the body and stimulate the flow of fresh blood, lymph, and Qi to the affected area and throughout the body. It often works wonders for patients with the flu, colds, coughs, back and muscle pain, poor circulation, anxiety, red itchy skin conditions (though cups are not applied to inflamed areas), allergies, fevers, aches and myriad other pains.

Otosan – Cones & Drops For Your Ear Care

What is an Otosan cone?

The Otosan cone is a simple system, reliable and effective and based on the ancial and popular tradition call auricular thermo therapy. The Otosan cone assists in the elimination of impurities and helps prevent the build up of excess earwax that can lead to auditory problems such as buzzing, whistling, background noise, and unbalanced ear pressure and transmission loss with consequent sensation of closed ears.

How do Otosan candles work?

The gentle heat produced during the treatment delicately penetrates into the auditory canal and softens the earwax. Natural propolis provides an effective protection function that enforces the natural defences of the ears. During the treatment the warm air rises up (chimney effect) and supports the elimination of dirt and water residue in the auditory canal and creates a feeling of relaxed well-being.

What do Otosan candles help you with?

  • Excessive accumulation of ear wax
  • Sensation of reduced hearing
  • Itching, whistling and buzzing
  • Unbalanced ear pressure
  • Blocked ear sensation

Testimonials

I initially visited Jack and Paige a few years ago when I was suffering with tension headaches and also neck problems.

The acupuncture and acupressure treatment I received was very relaxing and rapidly alleviated the discomfort I had been having for weeks.

Jack and Paige make an admirable team, putting you at ease straight away and importantly taking the time to understand the nature of and the cause of the problem. I have revisited them on a number of occasions since, for treatments for myself and my child and I can’t recommend them highly enough.

It’s a five star service.

— Sarah, Scientist, Stratford upon Avon

What our patients say

I recently suffered an attack of facial Bell ’s palsy. I contacted Jack who arranged to see me the same day and commenced an intensive daily programme of acupuncture. This fortunately resulted in a complete recovery over a relatively short period which I put down entirely to Jack’s early and dedicated intervention. — Irving David
