Cupping Workshops

I first used cupping in massage school in 2007 and found it immediately fascinating! After years of experience, I decided to begin teaching. I spent several years as a lead therapist in a very busy massage studio and I taught workshops for that studio and a few others in the region. I have been teaching these workshops on a regular basis for several years now, and find nothing more exciting than being able to share these incredible tools with other hands-on healers! 

 ⦁ Training in the use of Silicone Cups and Glass Facial Cups to aid in incredibly effective full body massage treatments.  Worth 8 WA state CE's for WA State Licensed Massage Therapists. 

⦁ Students will learn to effectively utilize Silicone Cups for the purpose of: softening fascia, breaking apart myofascial adhesions, reducing and eliminating trigger points, promoting joint health, promoting circulatory health, stimulating/improving lymph drainage, healthy stimulation of the nervous system, and improving gastrointestinal health.  

⦁ Students will also learn to effectively use Facial Cupping Bells for the purpose of treating TMJ Syndrome, Tension Headaches, Sinus Drainage, and Lymph Drainage. 

⦁ Students will demonstrate their knowledge of the benefits of cupping to the: Skin, Muscles, Joints, Fascia, Circulatory System, Lymphatic System, Nervous System, and Digestive System as well as understanding of the contraindications to cupping via multiple choice exam at the end of the class. Students will demonstrate their ability to administer the cupping techniques taught in this course via a practical demonstration during each practice session. 

Prerequisite - Completion of Massage therapy school, or the completion of Anatomy and Physiology studies during formal medical training.  

        So long as workshop location and massage tables are provided by the group/individual hosting the workshop, and students purchase cups in advance (and have them present for the workshop) I charge $100 per student for an 8 hour class, with a minimum of 8 students. I prefer students to have at least 2 sets of 4 silicone cups. Please contact me for links to purchase cups for your workshop and for more workshop details at Nancy_Hisaw@live.com or at (509)845-6722. If you are unable to find 8 therapists who would like to attend please let me know, I may be able to connect you with another group that is interested in cupping training.
