You may have seen athletes on T.V. with those red, round circles on their shoulders or back and wondered what the heck?  Those marks are due to an acupuncture therapy known as cupping therapy or cupping.

     Cupping was utilized throughout ancient Asia and is now being practiced worldwide.  It is a great therapy to treat athletes and non-athletes alike.  Cupping is used to treat colds, muscle pain, joint pain, headaches and many other ailments.  It works by causing a suction between the cup and your skin and returning the proper flow of blood and "qi" or energy, thereby relieving symptoms.
