"I highly recommend, I took the hot stone and cupping course through breakthrough massage academy. I left being confident in my ability to perform these modalities out in the actual field"
Hi, I'm Kelly
RMT & Massage Educator with an immense passion to help as many massage therapists as possible.
I can't wait to meet you and be your teacher! Out of all the things I have learned over the years, cupping has been my number 1 modality to choose. It's so versatile, the set up is so simple, and it can be used on relaxation clients up to the rehabilitation clients. Whether you are a sports therapist, deep tissue therapist, spa therapist, or somewhere in between, Cupping has its place in almost any treatment setting.
