Course Description:

There are many misconceptions about using cupping therapy in treating the human fascial system during manual therapy or with exercise. This course provides clarity for rehabilitation practitioners in the use of cupping therapy by reviewing the appropriate pressures, time durations, dosage, frequency, movement patterns, and specific treatment strategies for common orthopedic, neurologic, and sports impairments, in both exercise and manual therapy. Pre- and posttreatment testing examples are incorporated for enhanced awareness of outcomes and practical clinical applications. In addition, the course covers how to create effective treatment plans with objective outcome measures while navigating documentation and billing codes.
