Known as «Cupping Therapy», the Chinese cupping is a therapeutic method that has been used for millennia in Traditional Chinese Medicine. At Dr Dong Clinic in Geneva, we integrate this powerful practice into a safe, holistic medical approach. Whether you're looking to relieve persistent muscle pain, improve circulation or eliminate accumulated toxins, our team of experts is here to support you.
Far from being a simple wellness trend, cupping is a precise act of care that requires in-depth knowledge of the human body and its energy meridians.
The principle of Chinese cupping is based on the creation of a vacuum (a suction effect) on the surface of the skin. By placing glass, bamboo or plastic pots on specific areas of the body - often the back, shoulders or legs - the practitioner generates suction that draws blood to the surface.
This mechanical action stimulates local blood and lymph circulation. At cupping medicine, This technique is considered to «bring out the evil»: it dislodges energy blockages, drains toxins and promotes deep muscle relaxation.
The effectiveness of cupping therapy is particularly appreciated for treating a variety of everyday ailments. At Dr Dong Clinic, we recommend this treatment in particular for :
Backache, neck strain, sports aches and pains and rheumatism.
Bronchitis, asthma or colds (cupping helps clear the airways).
Improves venous return and lymphatic drainage.
Reduces stress and revitalizes the body.
After a session of Chinese cupping, It's common to see circular, colored marks appear on the skin. These marks, which are painless and temporary (they disappear within a few days), are completely normal: they testify to the effectiveness of the detoxification work carried out by the body.

Dr. Dong has worked miracles for me. First, he helped me resolve my fertility issues (I now have two wonderful children), and then, a few years later, he provided lasting relief from my migraines. Professional yet relaxed and excellent with his patients, he is always ready with a comforting smile and extremely wise and sound medical advice.
Dr. Dong is a true energizer, bringing vitality to the mind and body. Thank you so much. Dr. Dong's acupuncture is pure energizing magic, as are his vitamin and energy patches. I feel 20 years younger. Dr. Dong has always helped me regain my health. His team is wonderful at their work. A big thank you to Dr. Dong.
For years, I had been living with constant back pain. I was skeptical, but from the very first session, I felt that something was changing. The team at the clinic welcomed me with such kindness and professionalism. Thanks to them, I'm living again without medication, with my mobility restored.
The chemotherapy was very difficult, both physically and emotionally. The therapists at Dr. Dong's clinic were incredibly attentive and intuitive, helping me manage my nausea and fatigue with great compassion. I truly felt understood and cared for. I highly recommend this clinic.
I came to Dr. Dong's clinic because I couldn't remember the last time I had a good night's sleep. I was always exhausted. Acupuncture didn't fix everything right away, but over time, my body began to relax and I was able to sleep again. Now, two years later, I still go every week. It's become part of my routine; I don't go because I feel unwell, but to stay healthy.
I have always had digestive problems, bloating, pain... It really ruined my life. My doctor advised me to visit Dr. Dong's clinic. After a few sessions with Dr. Fan, my symptoms decreased and my digestion became much more regular. Today, not only do I feel much lighter, but I have also regained confidence in myself and my body.
We arrived at Dr. Dong's clinic feeling discouraged after two unsuccessful IVF attempts. The calm and attentive way in which Dr. Dong listened to our story was in itself a source of comfort. Thanks to regular acupuncture sessions, my cycle became more regular and, three months later, we conceived naturally. The whole team was like a second family.
