What is Cupping Therapy ?
Cupping Therapy is an ancient healing practice that involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This technique is used to enhance circulation, address fascial restrictions, and mobilize the muscles in a different direction than traditional massage. Cupping therapy can be performed using silicon or hard plastic cups, and can be applied to different parts of the body, depending on the individual’s needs. It combines traditional practices with modern therapeutic approaches to support overall health and well-being.
How It Works
During a cupping therapy session, the therapist places specially designed cups on the skin and creates a vacuum using a pump or the hands. The suction draws the skin and underlying tissues into the cup, increasing blood flow to the area. This process helps to release muscle tension, target tight fascia, and promote the healing of tissues. The cups can be left in place for a few minutes or slowly glided over the skin, depending on the desired treatment outcomes. You may see some marking present when the cups are left in place and that is a healthy and normal response to this treatment.
