  Dry needling and cupping are traditional medicine techniques used to alleviate pain and promote healing. Dry needling involves inserting thin needles into trigger points or areas of muscle tightness. Cupping uses suction to increase blood flow to a particular area, aiding in pain relief and relaxation. Both techniques can be beneficial, depending on the patient's condition and preferences.
