WHAT THE HECK IS THAT???  Any guesses?  It is actually a supplemental form of chinese medicine called cupping!  Yes that's what I said cupping.  It was in the news quite a bit years ago when actors and actresses in hollywood were showing up on the streets with these purple marks on their backs that are the leftover kisses from the chinese medicine technique called cupping. 

I know, I know, it looks weird right.  Well, ok, I can give you that, but it feels amazing!  To learn more about cupping and other chinese medicine techniques like moxibustion, or call (412)242-4220 to book an introductory acupuncture session with acupuncturist Andrew Macfarlane at the Pittsburgh Center for Complementary Health and Healing.
