Ancient Cupping Therapy: Traditional Healing for Modern Wellness
Cupping therapy is an ancient healing technique that has been practiced for thousands of years across cultures including Traditional Chinese Medicine, Egyptian, and Middle Eastern traditions. Using smooth glass cups, this method creates suction on the skin to stimulate blood flow, release tension, and activate the body’s natural healing processes.
What happens during the session?
During your session at AG Massage & Reflexology, Anna carefully applies cups to specific areas of the body. The suction gently lifts the skin and underlying tissues, increasing circulation and promoting the release of toxins. The cups may be left stationary or gently moved in slow, flowing motions to massage the muscles. The sensation is deeply relaxing and can leave temporary marks that indicate increased blood flow and detoxification.
