Cupping therapy is ideal for individuals dealing with muscle pain, tension, or stress. It’s especially helpful for those recovering from injuries, experiencing chronic pain, or looking to enhance flexibility and relaxation. A consultation with our therapist will decide whether or not cupping therapy is for you.
Many clients experience immediate relief after just one session, including improved mobility and reduced muscle tension. However, the full cupping benefits typically become more noticeable over a series of sessions, especially for chronic conditions.
The effects of cupping therapy can last anywhere from a few days to a few weeks, depending on the severity of your condition and the number of sessions you’ve had. Keeping the benefits and maximizing long-term health is possible through repeat treatments.
There is minimal downtime after cupping therapy. The majority of clients are able to continue their normal activities straight away. Some minor bruising or redness can result, but these will fade away within a couple of days. There are few side effects, and any discomfort is typically brief.
Before treatment, avoid heavy meals and stay hydrated. It’s also important to inform your therapist of any skin conditions or allergies. After the treatment, drink lots of water to assist with flushing out the toxins, and try not to exert yourself physically for the remainder of the day to enable your body to heal.
As the cups are applied to your skin during the session, you will experience a mild suction. Some clients feel a mild pulling or stretching sensation as the cups create suction to release muscle tension. This process is typical of cupping suction therapy, which targets deep tissue layers. The treatment usually takes around 30 minutes, and you can relax during the process.
