Summary

Finally, the long awaited episode with The Facial Cupping Expert, Sakina Di Pace, is here! Learn more about how facial cupping can be beneficial for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, cysts, and cystic acne. While facial cupping is growing in popularity, Sakina wants to ensure that folks are educated in how to use their cups appropriately and when cupping may actually not be the best fit - like hormonal acne and rosacea.

Sakina has practiced acupuncture globally for the past 12 years. She began using Facial Cupping, in addition to her needles, to help alleviate the pain of patients with nerve conditions such as peripheral neuropathy, and to stimulate muscle strength in paralysis cases such as Bell’s Palsy. Realising how beneficial Facial Cupping was to her patients, she decided to incorporate the technique into her cosmetic acupuncture treatments.

Sakina is the creator of the ‘6-step Facial Cupping Protocol for Beginners’, along with a popular and accredited ‘Facial Cupping For Professionals Course’ that helps teach those who want to become qualified in offering facial cupping to their clients.

0:00.0	I'm Erin Holt, and this is the functional nutrition podcast where we lean into intuitive
0:07.2	functional medicine. We look at how diet, our environment, our emotions, and our beliefs all affect
0:13.4	our physical health. This podcast is your full-bodied, well-rounded resource. I've got over a decade
0:19.8	of clinical experience, and because of that,
0:22.2	I've got a major bone to pick with diet culture and the conventional health care model.
0:26.4	They're both failing so many of us. But functional medicine isn't the panacea that it's made
0:31.3	out to be either. We've got some work to do, and that's why creating a new model is my life's
0:37.0	work. I believe in the ripple
0:38.7	effect. So I founded the Functional Nutrition Academy, a school and mentorship for practitioners
0:43.5	who want to do the same. This show is for you if you're looking for new ways of thinking about your
0:48.8	health and you're ready to be an active participant in your own healing. Please keep in mind this podcast
0:54.0	is created for educational purposes only and should never
0:57.2	be used as a replacement for medical diagnosis or treatment.
1:00.7	I would love for you to follow the show, rate, review, and share because you never know
1:05.5	whose life you might change.
1:06.7	And of course, keep coming back for more.
1:12.7	Hello, my friends.

1:18.9	I have Sakina, the facial cupping expert on the show.
1:23.7	I've been kind of alluding to this interview for a little while. I found her work on
