What Is Cupping Therapy and How Does It Work?
It may seem funny, but it works better than you’d think. Cupping therapy pulls the skin up with gentle suction. It’s more or less a reverse massage; instead of pushing down, we pull up.
The cups create suction that gets your blood moving fast. Fresh blood rushes in. Old, stagnant stuff gets pulled out. Your body starts healing itself.
Chinese cupping clears energy blockages that cause pain and problems. The suction opens up your body’s natural pathways so everything flows like it should.
People across Hong Kong love cupping therapy because it works without drugs or surgery. You feel the difference right away. Tight spots loosen up, and your energy comes back, as the pain melts away.
Also called suction therapy, it lets your body do what it does best: heal itself. We just give it the right push… or pull.

Testimonials
Our diverse customers are passionate advocates for our excellent services.
Dr. Grace is one of a kind specialist. She was able to resolve the health issue I've had for years. In just two months of taking her herbs I finally felt a relief from my pain issue. She is an amazing specialist and a human being. Smart, attentive to detail, extremely professional. One of the best in her field.
Big fan of Dr. Graceβs TCM practice! Love how she focuses on boosting your bodyβs natural defenses through acupuncture, cupping, and herbal medicine. She's super gentle and professional. Her approach feels super holistic and personalizedβlike sheβs actually listening and tailoring things to you. Walked out feeling better than I have in ages. 10/10 recommend.
The menstrual cramps and discomfort has bothered me for almost one year. I had to take pain killers for some months and felt very cold on my feet during period. After 2 months of drinking Chinese herbs and 2 sessions of acupuncture and moxibustion treatment from Dr. Grace, I donβt have any pain when period comes and my energy level is much higher. It is amazing! Highly recommend it!
EXCELLENT Based on 552 reviews Roshi DonkTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I wanted to share my experience at HK Sports Clinic with anyone reading and wondering if this is the sort of practice that suits their needs. I came into the clinic with a bad muscle sprain in my mid to upper back, with no clarity on the situation. I was then introduced to the physio Mete, who is well-versed in a variety of services, as I've seen on the website; with that, I was sure he would be able to help me. His ability to distinguish where the pain was originating and how to properly treat it was superb. The process went smoothly, with him discussing each stage of the muscle tightness treatment and how I could properly avoid it with exercises that he specifically catered to me. His professionalism and service were outstanding, and I'd highly recommend anyone who is looking for highly skilled and knowledgeable physios to visit HK Sports Clinic and, if possible, see Mete.
