FAQ’s
Have questions about our Dry Cupping services?
Check our FAQ section for answers to common queries.
Dry cupping increases blood flow, reduces muscle tension, and promotes healing by creating suction on the skin.
The number of dry cupping therapy sessions you need depends on your condition and goals, and how your body responds to treatment. A general course of treatment is 4–6 sessions, with intervals of 3–10 days between sessions. However, the frequency and duration of sessions can vary depending on your needs
Cupping may not be suitable for people with skin conditions, bleeding disorders, or those who are pregnant. Consult us to see if it’s right for you.
Avoid heavy meals, alcohol, and intense exercise before and after cupping. Stay hydrated and follow your therapist’s advice for recovery.
Dry cupping uses suction without cutting the skin or drawing blood. Wet cupping, often called hijama, involves breaking the skin and is a different procedure.
We accept various payment methods, including credit/debit cards. Payment is due at the time of your appointment.
Contact us before booking if you are pregnant, take blood-thinning medicines, have a bleeding disorder, or have a skin condition or broken skin in the proposed treatment area. Tell your clinician about all relevant conditions and medicines.
Choose the most convenient location: Bradford–Greengates, Rothwell or Colton. Check that your selected booking shows the correct clinic and treatment before confirming.
Some people experience short-term relief, but the research is limited. Treatment results vary, and persistent or unexplained pain should be assessed.
Temporary circular marks are common, and their appearance and duration vary. Marks do not show that “toxins” have been removed, and darker marks do not mean a better result.
The right appointment length depends on how many areas you would like assessed and whether you need time to discuss new symptoms.
30 minutes: Consider this for one focused area or a follow-up appointment.
45 minutes: Consider this for two related areas or when you would like more time for assessment and treatment.
60 minutes: Consider this for several areas or a more detailed discussion of new or ongoing symptoms.
Appointment time includes assessment, treatment where suitable, and advice—not continuous cupping. A longer appointment does not necessarily mean better results.
