Cupping Therapy in Gahanna
When muscles feel dense, tight, and hard to loosen, especially after strenuous workouts or long days at a desk, cupping therapy can help. This gentle, time-tested technique brings fresh blood flow to stubborn areas, allowing your body to relax and recover. We often recommend cupping for athletes and active adults who need more than standard massage to reach deeper layers. Care at Keystone Chiropractic is tailored to your goals, so you leave feeling looser and moving better.
How This Modality Works (and What to Expect)
Under the guidance of Dr. Nathan Lorenz, our team uses medical-grade cups and a small vacuum pump to create light suction on the skin. The cups are placed over tense muscles or slowly moved across the area to draw circulation through tight tissue. A typical session is 60 minutes, giving time to address the back, shoulders, neck, or legs as needed. As blood flow improves, muscles calm, inflammation eases, and discomfort fades.
How Cupping Can Help Provide Relief
Cupping supports recovery and reduces tension across many common concerns. Patients often combine it with chiropractic or massage for even better results. Conditions helped include:
- Dense, tight muscles in athletes and active adults
- Back and shoulder pain or stiffness
- Neck tension and tech neck strain
- Headaches and migraines
- Hip, hamstring, and calf tightness
- Post-workout recovery and circulation
- Generalized muscle soreness and stress
Many people notice meaningful changes within a few days, while headache relief can feel more immediate. Your therapist will focus on the areas that matter most to you.
Comfort, Coverage, and Simple Prep
Before your visit, make sure the skin in the areas we’ll treat is clean. Afterward, it’s normal to see round marks or mild bruising; these fade over several days as circulation improves. Some insurance plans cover cupping, and policies vary; our team can help you check your benefits and plan your visit. Dr. Lorenz ensures pressure stays comfortable and adjusts the approach as your body relaxes.
