30 Minute Cupping Massage

Service Description

Fire Cupping is a form of traditional form of healing, dating back thousands of years to China and ancient Egypt and has been used every century since then. The cup adheres to the skin’s surface, drawing tissue into the cup, pulling toxins, stagnate blood and fluid to the site. The fluids are blood and lymph. These substances collect underneath the cup. This is especially useful over “knots” in sore, tired, aching muscles where the blood flow has been restricted to the area. This newly accumulated blood bathes the muscle deep to its core, lubricating fibers and contributing to the healing of the tissue. Lymph is also drawn into the cup which aids in removing the painful build-up of lactic acid in the muscle. These physiological changes brought about by cupping, decreases tension in the muscle, restores internal organ function and encourages the flow of blood and energy to the area.
