Cupping Therapy Massage
Cupping Therapy Massage
Deep Tissue Massage is an ancient Chinese therapy that’s based on the belief that certain health problems can be caused by stagnant blood and a poor energy flow through your body. To prevent these health issues, cupping therapists apply cups—typically glass or silicone—to your skin to create a pressure that sucks your skin inward, according to the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Medicine.
Cupping therapists usually place cups on a person's back where they'll either leave the cups in place, or slide them around using lotion or oil, per the NCCIM and the pressure that the cups create draws blood to the affected area, increasing your blood overall, relieving muscle tension, improving circulation, and reducing inflammation.
What Does Cupping Feel Like:
Contrary to the commonly-held impression, the suction of the cups does not hurt. In fact, most people find the sensation very pleasant, a sort of a release. The cups can remain in position for several minutes, or the therapist can glide them over the skin similar to the movements of a massage. This negative pressure is the opposite to a deep tissue massage – a pulling versus a pushing effect
