Cupping Therapy in Bloor West Village
Release deep tension and wake up tired muscles with warm, targeted cupping. Using dynamic, stationary, and fire cupping methods, our practitioner works along key areas to boost circulation, soften tight tissue, and ease stubborn discomfort. Sessions can stand alone or be paired with massage or acupuncture to support recovery, mobility, and overall ease in your body.
What is Cupping Therapy?
Cupping therapy is a traditional technique where glass cups are placed on the skin to create gentle suction. At Bloor West Retreat, our practitioner works with dynamic, stationary, and fire cupping methods to lightly lift the tissue, improve circulation, and free areas that feel tight or stuck.
This approach can ease deep muscle tension, soften scar tightness, reduce feelings of heaviness, and support the body’s natural healing processes. Many people find cupping especially helpful for back and shoulder discomfort, sports strain, headaches, stress, and overall fatigue. Sessions can be booked on their own or paired with acupuncture or massage treatments for a more complete sense of relief and reset.
Therapies We Offer
Each treatment is thoughtfully designed to support balance, relief, and natural rejuvenation. Sessions are provided by our Registered Acupuncturist and Massage Therapists.
Dynamic Cupping
Cups are gently moved along muscles and meridians to boost circulation, warm the tissue, and ease broad areas of tightness or fatigue.
Stationary Cupping
Cups rest in one place to target stubborn knots, chronic tension, and areas that feel especially tight or heavy.
Fire Cupping
Traditional flame-warmed cups create a stronger pull to release deep stagnation, soften scar tension, and support more intense relief.
Special Cupping
Cupping can be combined with massage, acupuncture, gua sha, and Tuina massage to address both muscular tension and underlying patterns for fuller, longer-lasting results.
