Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone knew speciffically if MT's in Illinois are legally allowed to use cupping in their practice. I've looked at the requirements- I dont have the exact wording, but it stated that "cupping used with fire" was not allowed. I have a set of rubber cups from Acucups that don't involve fire or using a pump like other sets do. Would these be ok to use on my clients?

Has anyone received info on this? I've been searching for a long time. I'm a board certified holistic health practitioner and would like to know if I can do cupping. I'm not licensed just certified in my field. I also do reiki and reflexology. I've tried contacting so many people and seem to get the run around and no definitive answers.

You would have to contact the Illinois department of professional regulation to be certain.
