Red Panda Acupuncture
Student Athletes
Cupping is one of the techniques we use at Red Panda Acupuncture to help athletes recover from injury, tightness, or soreness. It relieves muscle tension and increases circulation. It is a technique many athletes benefit from including Olympic athletes competing in Rio. http://www.sbnation.com/lookit/2016/8/7/12399978/cupping-why-olympic-athletes-rio-2016-spots-circles-michael-phelps
