GET REAL LOW BACK RELIEF WITH CUPPING + TARGETED MOBILITY AT FIXXED

If you’ve tried stretching for your low back pain and felt nothing…or the relief only lasted a few minutes…you’re not alone. Traditional stretching often isn’t enough to address the deeper mobility restrictions, tissue tightness, and compensations that cause low back stiffness in the first place.

At Fixxed – physical therapy in Wakefield and Haverhill, we take a different approach: combining cupping therapy with targeted mobility work to help your low back move the way it should’ve all along.

WHY YOUR LOW BACK FEELS TIGHT IN THE FIRST PLACE

Low back stiffness is rarely just a “tight muscle problem.” More often, it’s caused by restrictions in the surrounding areas—your hips, thoracic spine, glutes, and deep core muscles.

When these areas aren’t moving well, your low back picks up the slack…
and that creates:

Chronic tension
Stiffness
Pinching or achy discomfort
Limited range of motion
Recurring flare-ups

A few basic stretches won’t fix the root cause. But cupping + mobility work? That’s where things actually start to change.

THE POWER OF CUPPING + TARGETED MOBILITY

At FIXXED, we pair cupping with intentional, strength-based mobility drills to create lasting improvements—not just temporary relief.

⭐ What cupping does:

Increases blood flow to tight or restricted tissues
Relieves muscle tension
Improves fascial glide
Helps decompress the low back

⭐ What mobility work does:

Restores actual movement to stiff joints
Strengthens weak or under-used muscles
Improves the way your hips and spine move together
Reduces compensation and future flare-ups

Together?
It’s not your average stretching session—it’s a strategy that makes real, lasting change.

WHAT A SESSION LOOKS LIKE

A low back cupping + mobility session at FIXXED may include:

Dynamic hip and thoracic mobility drills
Glute activation and deep core engagement
Cupping along the lumbar paraspinals and hips
Movement re-training to help your spine move freely again

Most patients leave feeling lighter, taller, and more mobile—with relief that actually sticks.
