Add Cupping Therapy to your healing skills!
Cupping is a powerful, ancient healing technique that gets to the source of the pain and gives massage therapists (and acupuncturists, chiropractors, physical therapists, etc.) the ability to help more people be pain free. Clients who are in pain need pain relief. By releasing stuck and toxic energy from the muscles and deep in the joints with Cupping, clients often experience immediate relief that is long lasting. Cupping is also a wonderful diagnostic tool that goes well with many massage and other healing techniques.
This online, instructional workshop is taught by Leta Herman, who has over 15 years of experience as a Chinese Medicine practitioner. She teaches advanced Cupping and Gua Sha pain-relieving skills to massage therapists, energy workers, alternative healers, acupuncturists, athletes, musicians, parents, and many others all over the world. You will learn how to successfully incorporate Cupping Therapy into your massage or healing practice in a way that brings in more clients, allowing you to bring lasting benefits to your clients and increase your hourly rates!
The class is made up of over 45 videos of Leta working one-on-one with clients showing you how to do Cupping and discussing tips, tricks, and the nuances of how to incorporate Cupping into your day-to-day practice.
You will receive 4 NCBTMB Continuing Education (CE) Hours for your Massage License requirements upon completion of this course!

"As a massage therapist, I have found this course to be invaluable to my practice. It has totally transformed how I look at the body and work with my clients. The results from cupping (and Gua sha) are exceptional and clients look forward to having it incorporated in their sessions. Clients are even booking straight cupping sessions! Cupping is definitely a powerful tool for us manual practitioners, and it’s much easier on our bodies. I highly recommend taking this course and adding cupping to your practice. Thank you Leta & Jaye. I’m forever grateful for the knowledge you are sharing via this course!"
- Christina Fales, massage therapist
"I enjoyed the videos and found them easy to follow and get me started with Cupping. Now that I have started to incorporate Cupping into my practice, I realize this has spiked my interest in Meridian Massage and other techniques that will only help me and my clients. I appreciate all the knowledge and thoroughly enjoy the Facebook page for the group; there is a lot of great information available by other practitioners."
- Kimberly Bolanowski, massage therapist
"Great course. Easy to implement into your practice and the results are immediate. Would highly recommend this course to anyone interested in cupping. Leta is an amazing resource."
- Sahra Chute, RMT
"I really enjoyed this class and learning more about the meridians. I'm so glad this class was taught with Chinese medicine theory attached."
- Andrea M. Fain, LMT
"I have taken one other cupping class taught by a massage therapist, and it was lacking in a lot of ways. I am so glad I found this one because it filled the gaps the other class was missing and taught a whole lot more! "
- Massage Therapist
"I LOVED this course! I feel like this is one of the best courses I've taken in a long time. Leta is very calm and easy to listen to. I have already begun using the moving cupping on a daily basis in my massage therapy sessions. I plan on using flash cupping with my own kids now that it is cough/cold season. After one cupping session, one client reported that she already feels so much better!!!"
- Massage Therapist
"I believe this course is set up to provide maximum information and designed perfectly for self-paced education. I enjoyed how the modules were broken up and how detailed each video was. I like the format because I was able to take notes and go back and review information that I didn't quite understand. This course is very thorough and very informative on the history of cupping and answered many questions that my existing clientele has about adding cupping therapy to their self-care regimen."
- yoga teacher student and ex-professional athlete
"I really enjoyed taking this class! I was able to listen and learn from the comfort of my home, and was able to comfortably practice on friends and family. I love it!"
