Increase circulation and restore blood flow
Cupping Therapy
Cupping is traditionally used to increase circulation and restore blood flow in the muscle tissue, providing relief from muscle pains, strains, aches and the like. It helps release lactic acid stagnation that’s deep in the muscle layer and can be used in recovery post-injury.
Cupping therapy, an ancient practice, involves placing cups on the skin to create suction. This therapy offers various benefits, including pain relief by improving blood flow and loosening muscles. It can alleviate muscle tension, promoting relaxation and reducing stress. It’s also believed to boost skin health, encouraging detoxification and improving circulation.
The cups stay on the skin for no more than 10 minutes and may leave a circular mark as a temporary keepsake. Although these marks may look like bruises, they are actually just the result of bringing up the stagnant blood and fluids to the surface of the body so that fresh, oxygenated blood can restore proper circulation below. The more stagnation there is, the darker the circles. These marks usually last from about 3 days up to a week. Cupping offers a non-invasive, holistic approach to wellness, known for its potential in promoting overall health and well-being.
