Cupping Massage
Cupping is much like the inverse of massage – rather than applying pressure to muscles, it uses gentle pressure to pull them upward, creating a particularly relaxing and relieving sensation for the patient.
The suction and negative pressure provided by cupping can loosen muscles, encourage blood flow, and sedate the nervous system — making it an excellent treatment for high blood pressure.
Cupping is used to relieve back and neck pains, stiff muscles, anxiety, fatigue, migraines, rheumatism, and even cellulite and weight loss.
This treatment is also valuable for the lungs, and can clear congestion from a common cold or help to control a person’s asthma.
Cupping has also been found to affect the body up to four inches into the tissues, causing tissues to release toxins, activate the lymphatic system, clear colon blockages, help activate and clear the veins, arteries and capillaries, activate the skin, clear stretch marks and improve varicose veins. Cupping is the best deep tissue massage available.
