Cupping Therapy

Cupping is a traditional Chinese technique that relies on negative pressure, creating suction on the skin, as opposed to the tissue compression techniques that are normally used during a massage.

Massage cupping is a bodywork approach based on an ancient healthcare practice of using cup shaped objects to create suction on the skin for various health and wellness benefits. The cups are moved over the skin, softening superficial fascia, which can bring blood flow to stagnant muscles and loosen adhesions and scar tissue.

It is also an excellent means of assisting with the flow of lymph, which aids in the body’s natural process of detoxification. Cupping therapy at Body Remedy also helps relieve aching muscles, releases joint stiffness, and may reduce inflammation for a variety of acute and chronic conditions.

During your session, a therapist will position a suction cup over specific treatment areas, producing a vacuum effect that helps improve overall circulation. Lie back, take a deep breath and enjoy the feeling of deep relaxation as it spreads throughout your entire body.

Cupping is a healing and rejuvenating therapy best experienced first-hand. Try something different and add this age-old practice to your next massage.

Cupping therapy for healing and relaxation

Cupping therapy is an ancient wellness technique where special cups are placed on your skin to create suction, which helps increase blood flow, release tension, and promote natural healing in the body. The suction gently lifts the skin and underlying tissues, supporting faster recovery and relaxation

Cupping is generally considered safe when performed by trained professionals. Most people experience only mild discomfort that feels like a gentle pulling sensation, and any temporary marks should fade within a week or two. Rarely, mild soreness or skin irritation may occur, but serious side effects are very uncommon

Cupping Therapy is beneficial for a wide range of conditions and goals. Some of the most common benefits include:

Relieving Muscle Tension: It helps release deep-seated knots and tightness in muscles.

Reducing Pain: It’s effective for back, neck, shoulder, and other
musculoskeletal pain.

Improving Circulation: The suction promotes better blood flow to the treated area, aiding in recovery.

Reducing Inflammation: By increasing circulation, it helps the body clear out inflammatory agents.

Stress Reduction: Many people find the treatment to be deeply relaxing and stress-relieving.
