Cupping

Cupping

Cupping therapy involves placing specialized cups on the skin to create suction, drawing in the skin and surrounding tissues. This suction induces a generalized inflammatory response, increasing blood flow to the area and assisting in detoxification.

At Barraco Physiotherapy, we utilize two types of cups for cupping therapy: glass and silicone.

  • Glass cups have a fixed size and are applied to predetermined surface areas, while
  • Silicone cups are flexible and can adapt to larger joints, making them versatile for
    treating various body areas.
