16 CE Credit Hours VacuTherapies provide a wonderful bridge to the medical community, with special applications for pre- and post-surgery conditions, chiropractic and orthopedic work, conditions associated with Diabetes, Parkinson's, Fibromylagia, and much more. Results are fast and comfortable for the client and practitioner, and noticeably impressive to other medical professionals. As an adjunct therapy for massage, physical therapy and chiropractic work, easy resolution of soft tissue issues enhances procedures and adjustments to accelerate client progress. Pre and post-surgical conditions such as scarring and restriction quickly respond to this gentle, yet effective, therapy. Athletic performance and injury recovery is also accelerated without discomfort. This MediCupping workshop reviews the applications and contra-indications, along with all of the foundation movements. Client intake, assessment and charting are discussed, and the practitioner comes to view the client through the cup, learning to discern information that the body reveals as it is being treated. The second day is dedicated to the lymphatic system and "Solid Bloat", including specialized work with obesity and client weight loss programs as well as diabetes and edema. Students work with and become skilled at using one of the ACE MediCupping™ machines, and will experience intensive hands on exposure to the techniques that are presented. MediCupping produces immediate effects on many conditions, resulting in client enthusiasm and commitment to treatment protocols. What to bring: Massage table with face cradle and bolster, linens, unscented oil/cream or lotion, and MediCupping machine, if you have one. You can also purchase your MediCupping machine before June 1, 2023 and claim a student discount of $50 on our website using a special code. Machines will be delivered to the WMF workshop or can be shipped direct to you if you agree to bring to class. You may also contact us with your order at Meg@massagecupping.com or info@massagecupping.com. We will also offer a very special workshop price for our online reference course (included with the machines) to any attendees who do not have one of our machines. We look forward to seeing you there! PLEASE DO NOT WEAR PERFUME, COLOGNE OR ESSENTIAL OILS TO CLASS.
