Cupping is an ancient healing therapy that many people use to ease pain. Cupping is a great supplement to deep tissue massage providing additional relief from overly tight muscles. Cupping is also a great alternative for those who do not like deeper pressure massages. The suction from the cups create a negative pressure and is known to increase circulation to the area where the cups are placed. The additional blood flow to that area can help relieve muscle tension and promote cell repair. It is also common for clients to experience bruise-like markings after cupping therapy treatments. PLEASE NOTE: ADD-ON CUPPING DOES NOT EXTEND THE DURATION OF YOUR SERVICE. THEY ARE INCLUDED IN THE MASSAGE DURATION YOU CHOOSE.
