About this training

What to expect

More than a technique. A complete treatment method.

During this 3-day official training, you will be introduced to Transformational Cupping®, a unique treatment method based on the Kim Cupping Methode.

You learn not only how to use cups, but especially how to understand, observe, and treat the body from a holistic perspective.

You will discover how to support the body in reducing tension, adhesions, stagnations, and waste products with moving cupping techniques, connective tissue work, and a well-thought-out treatment structure.

With this training, you lay a solid foundation for safe, professional, and well-considered treatments. Based on the official Kim Cupping Methode, Transformational Cupping® combines anatomical knowledge, fascia, connective tissue, observation, and bodywork into one complete treatment method.

At The Cupping Institute®, we believe that a good practitioner looks beyond the complaint alone. Therefore, you learn not only how to treat, but especially why you apply certain techniques and how to fully tailor each treatment to the unique needs of your client.
