The Cupping Therapy certificate Course begins with an introduction to the subject – explaining what cupping therapy is, exploring the different types of cupping, and zoning in on those that are the most popular. You’ll consider the benefits of cupping therapy - looking at the general benefits of cupping for health purposes before diving into specific ailments and cosmetic uses for the practice.
To gain a greater understanding of cupping, you’ll be taken through the history of the two most popular types – TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) and Hijama – but also the history of cupping in other cultures that are less widely known. You’ll also look at the recent history of cupping in the West. From here you’ll explore modern cupping, including its recent rise in popularity, celebrity use and various modern scientific studies on the practice.
The Cupping Therapy Certificate Course takes you through cupping therapy theory, which is based in TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine). You’ll explore important TCM concepts such as the Meridian system, Yin and Yang, and the Five Elements before exploring the cupping points and where they are located.
You’ll learn the practical application of cupping as you are guided through the preparation stage, including the equipment used and contraindications to be aware of, practical instruction for various types of cupping, other types of cupping, and instructions on treating various ailments.
With the theory and practical aspects understood, the Cupping Therapy Certificate Course rounds off by explaining how to run your own cupping business, covering considerations such as professional bodies and marketing.
