3 Health Benefits of Cupping Therapy
Cupping therapy is one of the many services offered at BALANCE Chiropractic & Wellness Co. (coming soon to Jacksonville, FL) that truly compliment chiropractic care. While specific chiropractic adjustments address the nervous system, cupping therapy provides a plethora of benefits for the musculoskeletal system, circulatory system (blood circulation), etc. Here are 3 of the health benefits that cupping therapy provides:
Pain Relief / Muscle Tension Reduction: Cupping involves placing cups on the skin in a way that creates a vacuum, ultimately drawing blood to the surface. This method has been scientifically proven to reduce pain and decrease muscle tension. Chiropractors serve as neuromusculoskeletal experts due to their extensive knowledge of the neuromusculoskeletal system, which is why Dr. Zoe can target specific areas of discomfort through cupping and cause release of tension in muscles and connective tissues.
Increased Range of Motion and Flexibility: By addressing restrictions in the fascia and promoting better blood flow to the joints, cupping therapy can contribute to increased range of motion and enhanced flexibility.
Improved Blood Circulation: By drawing new blood to the surface, cupping therapy enhances blood circulation by promoting the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the cell while removing waste products. This improved circulation can contribute to faster healing, reduced inflammation, and an overall boost in the body's natural healing processes.
In the hands of a skilled chiropractor, cupping therapy is a valuable tool for promoting holistic health. From pain relief to improved circulation, the benefits of cupping are wide-ranging and contribute to a comprehensive approach to wellness. Here at BALANCE, whether your goal is to move better, feel better, or heal better, you are in great hands.
