In cupping, vacuum cups lift the skin and fascia, improving circulation, reducing stagnation, and relieving muscle stiffness. Cupping can be used for chronic pain or tension.
Cupping does require some self care before and after to be most effective. Make sure to hydrate before your massage to allow sufficient space between the skin and muscle layer. After cupping we will ask that you stay relatively warm and well hydrated for 2-3 days following your treatment to protect your immune system. Also know that cupping often leaves circular marks that can be red or purple which may last as long as a week following treatment.
Cupping can be added to your massage at no additional cost as long as it is something the therapist is trained in. Please see the list below for reference.
