Functional Cupping Course

Delivered in the UK for the first time by Advanced Clinical Education (ACE) in collaboration with St Mary's University, this one-day course introduces Functional Cupping: a patient-centred, evidence-informed approach developed by ACE founder Shaun Brewster.

It combines contemporary research, pain science and clinical reasoning, with each treatment designed around the patient's individual functional deficit.
