What is Acupuncture and Cupping?
Acupuncture is a treatment that reestablishes the energetic balance of body, mind and spirit that has been practiced for over 5,000 years. Needles approved by the FDA as medical devices are inserted at specific points on the body to treat an array of emotional and medical dysfunctions. Cupping is an ancient Chinese treatment which promotes the flow of Qi and blood through the body. Cupping therapy is a treatment in which the practitioner creates suction in a cup. The cup is then applied to the body, which then draws the skin up around the cup and under the cup. Cupping results in the best use of energy and balanced energy flow. Cupping is a safe and non-invasive technique. ZEN acupuncture practitioners are state licensed health care providers receiving the highest level of training.
