Massage Cupping Therapy Workshop
September 29, 2017 @ 9:00 am - October 1, 2017 @ 5:00 pm
$499An incredible therapy that can be added into any massage and healing modality. This course includes education in history, theory and application of Massage Cupping therapy, along with demonstration of specific techniques. Massage Cupping greatly enhances the benefits of massage, decreases strain on the practitioner, and increases revenues through “add-on” services.
This technique has been created for bodywork and is powerfully therapeutic for many conditions. Massage Cupping is effective in relieving chronic pain at old injury sites and can address conditions such as; fibromyalgia, diabetes, pre- and post-op edema and inflammation, chronic edema, scar tissue and adhesions, and cellulite. This versatile technique mimics massage movements ranging from deep tissue and myofascial release to the light pumping movements of lymphatic drainage. Used regularly, Massage Cupping bodywork therapy is a terrific approach to promoting wellness for our clients and ourselves.
This three-day workshop is fun and informative, with plenty of hands-on activity. Education will include safety and contra-indications, conditions that benefit from the Massage Cupping techniques, integration into existing modalities, and applications for specific conditions. Don’t miss the opportunity to add to your “toolbox” one of the most valuable and versatile healing modalities available today.
