- Cupping Therapy
- Silicone cups are used to create negative pressure. This can be a better solution in helping with pain management than tissue compression (deep tissue). With the cupping therapy method, the skin, tissue, and muscles are instead pulled upwards to enhance circulation and provide pain management. This treatment is most helpful on the neck, back and legs.
It does typically leave bruising which can last 24 hrs to 2 weeks depending on the area where the cups are used.
*FACIAL cupping is available! Smaller, softer cups are used to relieve sinus pain or headaches due to colds or allergies. The area will initially be red but bruising does not occur. *** If you are taking blood thinners or a similar medication this CAN cause minor bruising.
Cupping can be incorporated into a 60 or 90 minute massage at no extra charge.
