Chronic back pain causes physical, emotional, and socioeconomic changes


Research is showing can be effective in the relief of chronic pain, for those new to our blogs, we have discussed what chronic pain is but put simply, it is pain that has lasted for at least 12 weeks


When it comes to pain, I always remind people that pain is the LAST sign of dysfunction but is the FIRST thing to go. But it puts in perspective if you take several months to get your pain looked at by a Chiropractor, it just added more time to your recovery and increases your chances of getting into a chronic pain situation


Most patients receive cupping in the low back and cervical regions


Most cupping sessions averaged around 5 sessions to get the best results


The most effective timing was 8 minutes


The range of cupping was from 5 to 10 minutes


Sometimes the residual marks can last from 1 to 10 days


When we apply to cups, we put the cups over the trigger points, these trigger points are specific points of high irritability , they are highly sensitive to digital pressure and can trigger local and referred pain
