At Body Drift Healing Arts, we have a number of regular clients. What I often hear is 'how long will this process take' in regards to firecupping a particular area. An answer to this question can vary greatly depending on the behaviors and lives of different clients. There have been a couple of clients, for example, who came in for a few visits consecutively, and bam, their neck was 'turning again' or bam, 'shoulder injury gone'. This is more common for acute injuries, however. Longer-term, embodied traumas (physical/emotional/or a combo) can take much longer. Sometimes clients may not be aware of certain behaviors or stressors that perpetuate tensions held in their bodies. The goal is to get to the root cause of the pain / embodied tension/constriction and co-create a self-care plan to manage the aches. Often, the aim is to improve overall functionality and can sometimes also incorporate elevating spiritual and/or mental well-being.

This particular friend and client has been dedicated to his sessions with regularity, yet has faced tremendous ongoing grief over the past couple of years. We agreed that easing back into a workout routine and incorporating hot yoga could help support opening & shifting energy areas that felt particularly 'stuck'. In addition, his acupuncturist recommended dietary changes. Recently, he committed to rewriting his story at once, and the results have been immense! From weight loss, to muscle development, and overall feeling *better in life*. Though he is experiencing the normal aches associated with exercise and lifting, all of the cupping marks have subsided on his back! This was our main area of focus for quite a while. Weeks before he started this new way of being, he was cupping purple in many areas, namely along the traps. We still have work on the shoulders; however, potential insights have revealed themselves as to why he may continue to hold tension in the neck area. I'm so excited for this amazing human to take back his life and health. It is an incredible journey to witness! The chi is flowing. Keep moving forward, A! One day at a time.
