Cupping therapy is a form of alternative medicine in which a local suction is created on the skin with the application of heated cups. Cupping Practitioners attempt to use cupping therapy for a wide array of medical conditions, including fevers, chronic low back pain, poor appetite, indigestion, high blood pressure, acne, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, anemia, stroke, rehabilitation, nasal congestion, infertility, and menstrual period cramping. Proponents claim cupping has a therapeutic effect and removes unspecified “toxins”, stagnant blood, or “vital energy” when used over acupuncture points with the goal of improving blood circulation.

*There are no prerequisites required to take this course.

I can’t thank RCC enough for all of their support while completing the RMT program. Their staff are deeply knowledgeable and truly care about your experience and success as a student. Their admin staff as well as the teachers are always available for extra help, questions or additional support if needed. The environment is warm, welcoming and you feel like you’re part of the family. The courses gave me everything I needed to write and pass my board exams, but more importantly, gave me the confidence to be a good and safe practicing RMT. Thank you again RCC, I will never forget you.

As a recent graduate of RCC, I’m very happy with the preparation I received here. The program is demanding, but it yielded results: I passed my board exams on the first attempt and was able to secure employment within weeks of receiving my reg #.

The instructors are experienced RMTs who are clearly invested in the profession. A huge advantage for me was the hands-on practice; the instructors were even willing to let us practice treatments on them to ensure our techniques were clinic-ready before graduation.

It is a smaller environment, which allowed for a close professional relationship with the staff. While every student's experience varies, I found that if you are committed to the work, the faculty goes above and beyond to support you. I’m grateful for my time at RCC and feel well-prepared for my career!
