Cupping
Cupping therapy has been used in massage for decades. It is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that was used for many diseases or skin conditions, and is now known for its use in western massage therapy or physiotherapy.
Cupping helps to activate blood vessels in the muscles, increasing blood flow to a particular location. This blood flow has a significant effect on stiffened or weakened muscles, making it a great choice for athletes. Cupping has been known to be suitable for many other issues, such as increasing circulation, body aches, aiding the respiratory system and facial paralysis (Bell’s Palsy).

The use of these stones within a therapeutic massage enhances the relaxation response of tissues and reduces delayed onset muscle soreness that sometimes is felt after deep tissue massage.
