Cupping Therapy

What is Cupping Therapy?

Cupping therapy is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.

What does cupping therapy do?

Suction from cupping draws fluid into the treated area. This suction force expands and breaks open tiny blood vessels (capillaries) under your skin. Your body replenishes the cupped areas with healthier blood flow and stimulates proper and normal healing at a cellular level. Because of this effect, some people think that cupping releases toxins.

Dr Hicke is very knowledgable. He set a plan and literally straightened me out and helped relive back tension.

I have always received the best treatment at Alberta Spine and Sport. From the time you walk in, the front desk ladies are always so professional and happy. Dr Hickey is the best Chiropractor I've ever seen and I've been dealing with a severely bad back for approx 30 years!

I have been going to Alberta Spine and Sport for a few years now and I could not be happier  with the treatment  I have recieved, whether it be physio or chiropractic. I have had two shoulder surgeries and have gained full range of motion and strength due to the amazing physiotherapist I have worked with.

This past June I had to have a partial knee replacement and again I achieved full range of motion, thanks to the awesome Physiotherapist I work with.

From the moment you walk through the door and are greeted by the ladies at the front desk, you know you are in good hands, and will recieve top notch care.
I would/will never go anywhere else.
