What Is Cupping?
Designed to create a suction sensation through purpose-built cups, cupping therapy offers a game-changing way to tap into instant relief. Stimulating healthy blood flow, easing muscle tension, and encouraging circulation, this service lifts the top three layers of tissue to the surface of the skin, jump-starting healing. And no, they’re not bruises!
What to expect
While cupping therapy may look painful, we’re known for our ultra-relaxing sessions, from lathering on organic coconut oil to prevent irritation to using gentle techniques to avoid discomfort. As a leading provider of cupping therapy in Cleves, Ohio, we’re focused on the details, steering clear of bruising, homing in on tense areas, and taking time to listen to your needs.
What are those marks?
Cupping leaves recognizable pink or purple circles behind, but these are not bruises! While bruises are caused by blunt force trauma damaging the capillaries, cupping does not damage the tissue or break capillaries. The marks are caused by pulling stagnant blood and lymph out of the muscle and fascia and to the surface, where the lymphatic system will recycle it and clear away the mark in about a week. The darker the mark means the tissue had more “metabolic wastes” sitting in it that we cleared out, so it will heal itself efficiently!
