Passive income: NO

Becoming a cupping therapist has the potential to eventually earn passive income, but it is not a guarantee for most practitioners. While some therapists may establish systems like online booking platforms or hire assistants to handle appointments, the nature of this service-based business often requires ongoing client interaction. Earnings can vary widely based on location, client base, and marketing efforts. While a few may achieve passive income through efficient systems and high demand, many therapists continue to actively work to maintain their income. Therefore, while passive income is possible, it may not be the norm for most cupping therapists.
