In cupping therapy, the therapist uses suction cups to facilitate healing and relaxation. The suction cups are applied to various parts of the body such as the legs, back, abdomen, buttocks, etc. It is left on the body for 10-20 minutes.
The cups are heated using herbs and other materials before placing them on the skin. The air inside the cup will cool down causing a change in pressure within it. The cup draws the skin and loosens muscles which increase blood circulation. It prompts the lymphatic system to remove toxins trapped in the tissues. The cupping process allows the stretching of soft tissues which further promotes detoxification. In short, it is an amazing way to activate the natural healing mechanism of the body.
Generally, cupping therapy is not painful. However, you may feel a slight discomfort and pressure sensation while the process is carried out. It is a safe, painless, and effective treatment method if done by professional therapists. You may find slight redness and circular marks of the cup on the skin which will fade in a few days.
