What is Chinese Cupping Therapy?
Chinese cupping therapy is a time-honoured technique where specially designed cups create a gentle localised suction on your skin. This powerful action:
- Stimulate Blood and Lymph Flow
- Lifts Tissue and Releases Toxins
- Relieves Deep Muscle and Fascial Tension
- Regulates Qi or the Body’s Energy Flow
- Activates the Immune System
We offer various techniques including stationary cups, sliding cups and specialised methods like pricking cupping therapy and bleeding cupping therapy for specific conditions.

Advanced Techniques: Pricking and Bleeding Cupping Therapy
Bleeding Cupping Therapy
This technique is used for specific heat conditions or extreme local congestion. This method incorporates the controlled release of a few drops of blood under the cup to rapidly clear heat and toxins. We perform this with strict sterile protocols.
Pricking Cupping Therapy
For severe stagnation and inflammation such as deep bruising and intense pain, tiny pricks are made before applying the cup to draw out a small amount of stagnant blood.
While bleeding cupping therapy can be extremely effective for certain conditions, it is not suitable for everyone. We will carefully assess your health history and current condition to determine if this technique is suitable for you. Call us now to know the details.
