Cupping Treatment

Cupping Massage

While this ancient practice has been utilized for thousands of years, it has only recently gained popularity by way of celebrities and professional athletes, who wear the telltale signs of "cupping circles" as evidence of their treatment. Cupping is a modality used in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Suction cups are placed on various points of the body to encourage blood flow, reduce blood stagnation and fascial restrictions. This leads to less overall pain, improved flexibility and function. Cupping is commonly used to lessen fatigue and provide relief from stiff muscles, neck and back pain.

Scope of Practice

​

On November 24 2020, the CMTO changed our scope of practice and “rescinded two policies 1) the Complementary Modalities policy, and 2) Modalities Considered to be Outside the Scope of Practice policy."  Instead of providing a list of modalities that is, or is not in scope, they have adopted a new modernized standard in which a modality can be used if:

​

1.     It involves the manipulation of joints and soft tissue with the aim of maintaining or rehabilitating physical dysfunction

2.     You can obtain informed consent from clients and explain the risks, benefits and side effect etc

3.     Training is sufficient to ensure safe treatment

4.     There is evidence to support the use of the modality for the benefit of the clients health

​

If the modality falls within this Scope of Practice, they may be billed as “Massage Therapy Treatment.”

Our Traditional Thai Massage and Chi Nei Tsang courses and treatments satisfy all the necessary requirements to qualify within our scope of practice.
