What is cupping and benefits of a cupping massage?

Myofascial Cupping

 

Cupping is the oldest and most globally practiced medical treatment in human history.  Cupping uses negative pressure, rather than tissue compression. Cupping mobilizes blood flow in order to promote healing.  

 

Benefits include:

  • relieving pain and inflammation from injury or chronic conditions
  • relieving deep muscular issues and reducing muscle spasms
  • releasing and softening scar tissue and loosening post-surgery adhesions
  • increasing range of movement and flexibility in joints
  • promoting healthy circulation, brings blood flow to stagnant muscles
  • moving stagnation and enabling normal lymphatic flow
allows for a deep relaxation to move through the entire body
