Don’t like needles? Try Cupping! (Acupuncture benefits cover this as well)

Cupping involves suction of the skin into a cup, to increase Qi and blood flow to an area or away from an area. Cupping helps to decrease pain, inflammation and muscle tension and can be used for injuries, trauma, or stress relief. Cupping can be done using strong pressure for more of a deep tissue massage or light pressure for more of a relaxing treatment. Paige normally uses a combination of stagnant cupping and gliding cupping techniques using either glass, plastic or silicone cupping depending on the patient's needs. Stagnant cupping is when skin is drawn into the cups and is left on the patient for a period of time, allowing new blood to be drawn to the area to heal. Gliding cupping also draws the skin into the cupping but is lifted and slid across the skin. It separates the skin from the underlying muscle tissue and can treat tightness, pain or stagnation in the area. 

Cupping is most often used for but not limited to:
-Low back pain 
-Neck/trapezius pain
-Immune system boost
-Shoulder pain
-Digestive issues
-Plantar fasciitis
