Workshop Description
MediCupping Level 1
22 CEUs (NCBTMB)
MediCupping provides a wonderful bridge to the medical community, with special applications for surgical preparation and recovery, chiropractic and orthopedic work, conditions associated with Diabetes, Parkinson’s, Fibromylagia, and much more. The results are fast and comfortable for the client and practitioner, and noticeably impressive to medical professionals.
As an adjunct therapy for massage, physical therapy and chiropractic work, easy resolution of soft tissue issues enhances procedures and adjustments to accelerate client progress. Preoperative and postoperative conditions such as scarring and restriction quickly respond to this gentle, yet effective, therapy. Athletic performance and injury recovery is also accelerated without discomfort.
This MediCupping Level 1 workshop reviews the history of vacuum therapies, applications and contraindications, and all of the foundation movements. Client intake, assessment and charting are addressed, and the practitioner comes to view the client through the cup, learning to discern information that the body reveals as it is being treated. The second day of the workshop focuses on athletic performance, pathologies, and deep tissue issues, as well as the use of magnets to accelerate results. The final day is dedicated to the lymphatic system and “Solid Bloat”, including specialized work with obesity and client weight loss programs as well as diabetes and edema.
Students will work with and become skilled at using the MC-600 VacuTherapy machine and/or MM-600 VacuTherapy machine, and will experience intensive hands-on exposure to the techniques that are presented.
MediCupping produces immediate effects on many conditions, resulting in client enthusiasm and commitment to treatment protocols.

Martha Graham has practiced in Ohio and Tennessee. She is the founder of Uplift Bodyworks LLC, just outside of Chattanooga, TN. Martha began her health career with a certification in Massage Therapy in 2003 from Healing Arts Institute in Perrysburg, OH and later obtained a degree in Physical Therapy Assisting in 2012 from the Professional Skills Institute in Toledo, Ohio.
Martha discovered cupping while researching techniques in the hopes of marrying massage therapy and physical therapy. Martha first met Anita J. Shannon in 2013 while taking her first cupping course. The encounter changed the way she thought about the body, and ultimately altered the trajectory of her career and life. Martha has years of clinical cupping experience and is very knowledgeable in the application of various techniques and cupping equipment. Martha is eager to further the development of cupping as a therapeutic modality and has a passion for teaching and assisting therapists in both massage therapy and physical therapy to provide the best evidence-based techniques to benefit their patients.
