Cupping is using specific cups to create a suction which can enhance your body floor and circulation. This suction helps to relax muscles, relieve tension, and can promote a sense of relaxation and stress reduction.
Air cups are gentler and often used for more sensitive conditions
Fire cups provide a stronger therapeutic effect through heat and are typically used for deeper issues like pain and inflammation.
Air cupping: places a cup on the skin and creates suction to pull the skin upward with a suction gun.
Fire Cupping: this works by placing warm glass cups on the skin to create a vacuum that draws tissue inside
Pain Relief: Alleviates muscle and joint pain by increasing blood flow and relaxing tense muscles.
Reduced Inflammation: Helps decrease inflammation in affected areas, promoting quicker recovery from injuries.
Improved Circulation: Enhances blood flow to the tissues, which can aid in healing and nutrient delivery.
Relaxation: Promotes a state of relaxation, reducing stress and anxiety levels.
Detoxification: Assists in removing toxins from the body by stimulating the lymphatic system.
The suction force from cupping breaks open tiny blood vessels under your skin. You’ll have red or purple, round cupping therapy marks that should fade in a week or two. Although these marks will look like bruises, they’re not true bruises that injure muscle fibre.
Pregnant Women: Particularly in the abdominal or lower back areas.
Individuals with Skin Conditions: Such as eczema, psoriasis, or open wounds.
Those with Blood Disorders: Including hemophilia or conditions that affect clotting.
Infections: Any area with an active infection or inflammatory condition.
Recent Surgery: Over areas that have recently undergone surgical procedures.
Fragile Skin: Such as in elderly individuals or those with conditions like diabetes.
Certain Heart Conditions: Individuals with severe heart issues should consult a healthcare provider first.
Certain Medications: Those on blood-thinning medications should avoid cupping.
