Cupping Therapy at A&M Health Clinic Full Body Massage

Cupping therapy is an ancient alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation, and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.

How Cupping Therapy Works:-

Cupping therapy involves placing special cups on the skin for a few minutes to create suction. The suction pulls the skin and underlying tissue up into the cup. Cupping therapy is usually done with glass, bamboo, or silicone cups.

The cups can be left in place for a few minutes or up to 15 minutes. Cupping therapy is often used in combination with acupuncture, massage, or other forms of alternative medicine.

Cupping therapy is said to improve blood flow and promote healing by drawing toxins out of the body. It is also said to help relieve pain, relax muscles, and reduce inflammation. Cupping therapy is sometimes used as a deep tissue massage.

  3. Cupping therapy can be done with dry cups or wet cups. Dry cupping does not involve breaking the skin. Wet cupping involves making small incisions in the skin before applying the cups.
  4. Cupping therapy can be a bit painful but should not be unbearable. If you experience too intense pain, please let your therapist know so they can adjust the pressure of the cups.
  5. Cupping therapy can leave temporary marks on your skin. These marks are not bruises and will fade within a few days.
  6. Cupping therapy is not recommended for pregnant women or people with certain medical conditions. Please let your therapist know if you have any medical concerns before your appointment.

What Should You Wear to Your Appointment and How Will You Feel After Treatment?

Cupping therapy can be performed with the patient fully clothed or using special oil-infused cups placed on the skin. If you're opting for the latter, it's important to wear loose-fitting clothing that will allow your therapist easy access to the treated area. It's also a good idea to wear dark-colored clothing, as the cups can sometimes leave marks on the skin.

Are Any Risks Associated With Cupping Therapy, and How Do You Avoid Them?

Cupping therapy is a safe and effective treatment for many conditions, but there are a few risks to be aware of. The most common hazards include skin bruising, burns, and discomfort. These risks can be avoided by working with a certified and experienced cupping therapist.

Cupping therapy can be a great addition to your self-care routine. Cupping therapy should not be used on broken skin or if you have a bleeding disorder.
