Ancient Alternatives

One aspect of acupuncture that is very interesting (and useful) is cupping. Cupping is not only used on the body for injury (sports, overuse or traumatic) but also for digestive problems, women’s health concerns (menstruation problems, menopause, fertility).

A type of cupping called facial cupping uses small moving cups to gently lift and invigorate the skin and tissue of the face. Results are immediate and result in a more youthful look. Skin is tighter, bags around the eyes are diminished and lines and wrinkles are lessened. For some “me time” or a special occasion, facial cupping will make you look and feel great.
