Cupping plays a crucial role in health and well-being. It helps patients maintain optimal physical condition, recover from injuries and prevent new trauma.

By focusing on the specificities of each pathology, our physiotherapists in Geneva bring essential expertise for a quick and effective recovery, allowing patients to regain their quality of life with confidence and security.

Our objectives in Cupping

The suction effect of cups loosens fascia and releases deep muscle contractures.

Improved Circulation

Suction stimulates local blood flow, promoting the supply of oxygen and nutrients to the tissues.

Cupping is effective for treating trigger points and chronic tension areas.

Pain Reduction

Increased circulation and tissue release contribute to fast pain relief.

Therapeutic cupping is an ancient technique revisited and integrated into modern physiotherapy.
