Cupping Therapy in Bangkok
Improve blood circulation and energy balance to improve your quality of life
Blood circulation and your lymphatic system are deeply interconnected with your muscles, joints and tissues so if these systems are unable to function properly, you’ll end up dealing with a host of long-term issues. You might find that your muscles take forever to recover from any kind of exercise or you find yourself going through bouts of lethargy but these could be a symptom of stagnant Qi that is inhibiting your circulatory systems.
An effective way to eliminate stagnant Qi is via Cupping Therapy. Cupping is a part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in which Cupping Therapy glasses are placed on the skin over acupuncture points and/or muscles. Heat or air is used to create suction between the cup and your skin and is left on your body for a few minutes. This technique puts into practice the old Chinese medical maxim: “Where there’s pain, there is stagnation. Remove the stagnation, and you remove the pain.”
Our TCM practitioners are experienced in diagnosing Qi imbalances and pinpointing the areas that are causing stagnation and blocked Qi. They will lay out a treatment plan that increases your chances of pain relief, promoting improved blood and lymphatic circulation, and rids your body of excess toxic fluids.
Once you get in touch with us, we’ll onboard you with a free consultation at our clinic in Bangkok. We’ll assess whether you are a good candidate for Cupping Therapy and then explain how the treatment process works and answer any of your questions.
People who might find cupping therapy suitable often ask:
- Why do I feel stressed out and lethargic after physical activity?
- My muscles ache and I can’t seem to stretch like I used to. What can I do about it?
- My chronic neck pain keeps acting up. How do I make it go away?

Learn more about cupping therapy
Cupping leaves red, circular marks that can look like bruises (but are not usually painful) These are caused by the increased circulation that the cups draw into the layers of the skin, and they usually last for around one week, sometimes a bit longer.
Your TCM therapist will check in with you throughout the treatment to make sure you are comfortable. You can expect about the same amount of pressure/discomfort as you may feel during a therapeutic Medical massage therapy treatment.
It’s better to stay away from warm temperatures 2 hours before and 2 hours after the treatment as it can lead to skin damage and inflammation.You can return to all your other regular activities after the treatment.
