✨ Cupping, Fascia & the Science of Healing ✨
Cupping and guasha may be best known today for their visible marks—often spotted on Olympic athletes—but their true power goes far deeper than the surface. Rooted in thousands of years of Traditional Chinese Medicine, these therapies support pain relief, fascial health, circulation, and even cellular renewal.
In this article, Dr. Rebekah explores how cupping works not only through the meridian system, but also through modern scientific mechanisms like myofascial decompression, improved blood flow, collagen regeneration, and autophagy. From chronic shoulder and hip tension to facial rejuvenation and connective tissue health, cupping and guasha offer a profound way to restore balance, mobility, and resilience in the body.
If you’ve ever wondered why these treatments feel so effective—or how ancient medicine and modern research beautifully overlap—this is a must-read.
