Intake Questions
Upon scheduling your treatment I will ask if you can answer yes to any of the following statements. Answering yes does not exclude you from treatment, but it is part of the intake process.
I have a cardiovascular or blood pressure condition
I have been cupped in the last week
I am menstruating
I have a broken bone, or an injured muscle or tendon
I have: neuropathy, diabetes, allergies, varicose veins, a hernia, skin rash, fever
I have a spinal condition
I am pregnant

I am taking prescription medication
I have a tumor or cancerous growth
I have a blood clotting condition
I have a kidney infection
I have an open skin wound
I have recently undergone surgery
I have a contagious illness
I am exhausted or depleted
For best results from your treatment: arrive warmly dressed, and at least one hour after eating a big meal. Plan to go slow the next 24 hours, especially for an hour after being cupped. Healthy hydration is paramount.
