Cupping therapy uses the force of suction to pull blood toward the surface of your skin. This suction force expands and breaks open tiny blood vessels (capillaries) under your skin. The idea is to increase your body’s natural healing response.

 Western Acupuncture, like Traditional Chinese Medicine uses meridian points, but applies these points to western scientific reasoning and knowledge of anatomy as well as neurophysiology. On an extremely simplistic level, these needles increase blood flow and local stimulation of the nervous system through the meridian points to decrease inflammation and promote healing.

Dry needling on the other hand, uses acupuncture needles but instead of using meridian points we are treating the motor points  or trigger points of a muscle to relax the entire muscle. 

Gua sha originated from Traditional Chinese Medicine as a healing method, with multiple benefits. In our clinic a trained professional uses a smooth-edged tool to scrape or stroke your skin to increase blood flow and break up fascial restrictions . This technique causes small, red, rash-like dots to appear under your skin. This is a good thing as it helps get rid of toxins in the muscles. These bumps are called "petechiae".
