Cupping
What is Cupping?
A vacuum is created inside a cup, typically made of glass but sometimes plastic is used, which is then placed on the skin. The suction caused by the vacuum lifts the tissue beneath, and the cup is then moved along the muscle to release tension and knotting. It is very popular with many of our customers and is one of the more intensive treatments we offer.
Is it safe?
Yes – when performed by a trained professional. Our practitioners have been using this technique for many years without causing any injury or damage to customers.
Will it leave a mark?
Yes – but only for a short time. Some people refer to the marks as bruising however the perfect circle shapes left behind indicate that there is no bleeding below the skin. The release of tension in the area draws blood to the surface which will dissipate over the next few days. Affected areas may also be sore for 48 hours or so but this is normal.
