Free Cupping sessions
Cupping therapy is an ancient Chinese practice involving the use of suction cups to stimulate a number of health benefits. The suction may be created with the use of glass cups and a flame, or plastic cups with a suction mechanism.
What are the health benefits?
- stimulates the movement of qi and blood
- draws toxins to the surface of the skin, where they can dissipate and allow oxygen-rich blood to flow more freely.
- pulls and stretches muscles in ways that cannot be achieved by massage

Cupping is very safe and risks are minimal.
What does cupping feel like?

The cost for a cupping session is normally $30. Normally the cups are left on for 15 - 20mins, depending on your skin type and sensitivity etc. Most health funds do not provide rebate for cupping, though please check with your provider to be sure.
