What Is Cupping Therapy?

Acupuncture

Cupping Therapy is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that uses controlled suction on the skin to stimulate soft tissues, promote circulation, and release muscular and fascial tension.

At Amrita Healthcare, cupping is provided as a clinically guided supportive therapy by trained practitioners. It may be offered as a standalone treatment or integrated with acupuncture, RMT massage, or a comprehensive TCM treatment plan.

The Amrita Community Gets To The Point

"My healer had such a grounding presence and immediately made me feel at ease. The intake process felt very professional yet personalized - I could tell how much my healer had taken the time to review my history which meant a lot for my first appointment. She was gentle, encouraging, and non-judgmental - all of which I really appreciated."

"I have ongoing muscle/tendon issues, and my treatment at Amrita Healthcare was the perfect remedy - not only was my session great, but my healer also provided a great treatment plan of what I can do at home on my own."
— Markham, Toronto
"Amrita Healthcare is on another level. Such a pretty, calming space. My first acupuncture session felt like a hundred pounds were lifted off. I hadn't felt happy and zen like that in years. I became a member and have already been back."

FAQ

Find the most frequently asked questions below.

Acupuncture is a regulated healthcare practice and a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It involves the insertion of very fine, sterile, single-use needles at specific points on the body to support the flow of Qi (vital energy), circulation, and overall physiological balance.
In modern clinical settings, acupuncture is commonly used as a complementary therapy to support pain management, stress reduction, and overall wellness.

Traditional Chinese Medicine is a comprehensive medical system that has been practiced for thousands of years. It includes acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, dietary therapy, and lifestyle guidance.
TCM views health as a state of balance within the body. Diagnosis is based on identifying patterns of disharmony rather than isolated symptoms. Treatment focuses on supporting the body’s natural ability to regulate, restore, and maintain internal balance.
In Canada, TCM and acupuncture are regulated professions in several provinces.

Acupuncture is commonly used to support a wide range of conditions, including:
●Musculoskeletal pain (neck, back, shoulder, knee)
●Headaches and migraines
●Stress and anxiety
●Sleep disturbances
●Digestive concerns
●Hormonal balance
●Women’s health support
●Postpartum recovery
●General wellness and preventive care
Individual treatment plans are personalized based on a comprehensive assessment.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort. The needles used in acupuncture are extremely thin—much finer than injection needles.
You may feel a mild sensation such as tingling, warmth, heaviness, or dull pressure at the insertion site. These sensations are generally brief and are considered a normal therapeutic response.
Many patients find acupuncture deeply relaxing and may feel calm or even sleepy during treatment.

Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture, sometimes referred to as cosmetic acupuncture, is a non-invasive treatment that supports skin vitality through a holistic approach.
Very fine needles are placed on the face and body to support circulation, muscle tone, and the body’s natural regenerative processes. In TCM, facial appearance reflects the internal balance of Qi and blood. By addressing both local facial areas and underlying systemic patterns, this treatment supports overall facial harmony.
Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture may help:
●Support healthy circulation to the face
●Improve skin tone and radiance
●Reduce the appearance of fine lines over time
●Promote facial muscle relaxation
●Support stress reduction and overall wellness
Results develop gradually and vary from person to person. A series of treatments is typically recommended for optimal outcomes.

Acupuncture is generally considered safe when performed by a qualified and licensed practitioner. At our clinic:
●All needles are sterile and single-use
●Treatment plans are individualized
●Health history is reviewed prior to care
If you have medical conditions, are pregnant, or are taking medication, please inform your practitioner during your consultation.

The number of treatments varies depending on the condition, its duration, and individual response. Acute conditions may require fewer sessions, while chronic or long-standing concerns often benefit from a treatment series.
Your practitioner will discuss a recommended plan after your initial assessment.
