CUPPING THERAPY

In most cases, non-surgical treatment options are the solution to ending your pain and bringing you back to a full and healthy life. Dr. Herman will guide you through your best options for treatment, and if surgery or another form of care may be needed, he will refer you to the appropriate provider.
 

CUPPING THERAPY

Cupping therapy creates a vacuum inside of a cup that is positioned over the surface of the skin, using local negative pressure to promote blood flow. Cupping therapy is used to decrease pain, improve circulation, and enhance performance. This technique became popular during the 2016 Rio Summer Olympics, as several athletes were seen with visible “red dots” that were left behind from cupping therapy; these dots do disappear within several days, however.
