Cupping therapy in Stoney Creek, Ontario
Relieve Tension. Improve Circulation. Feel Lighter.
Cupping is a gentle, hands-on therapy used to release muscle tension, improve blood flow, and support the body’s natural healing. At our Stoney Creek clinic, it’s offered by licensed Naturopathic Doctors, often alongside acupuncture.
Cupping involves placing small suction cups on the skin to create negative pressure.
This helps lift the tissue, increase circulation, and release tight or stuck muscles.
It’s a safe, non-invasive therapy that can be helpful for people dealing with pain, tension, or poor circulation. Cupping is often included as part of an acupuncture or naturopathic treatment plan, based on your individual needs.
Cupping is often recommended for people with chronic tension or restricted movement.
It’s especially helpful for persistent tightness in areas like the neck, shoulders, or back.
Benefits of cupping may include:
- Reduced muscle soreness
- Improved circulation
- Relief from stiffness and restricted mobility
- Nervous system relaxation
- Gentle support for detox and lymphatic flow
