Myofascial Cupping Massage
Myofascial Cupping Massage involves the application of cups onto the skin with manually adjustable suction. The area is first warmed up by using hot stones and Swedish Massage. Created comfortable pressure causes local vessel dilation and increases blood and lymphatic circulation. Lift and glide motion across the area releases soft tissue tension and enhances mobilization. Next cups are placed stationary for 5-10min with an optional stretch exercise to intensify the effect. As no active heat is induced, there is no risk of burning and blistering. Skin reaction involves circular cupping marks, and red skin due to vasodilation or bruise lasting from a couple of hours to a week depending on skin sensitivity.
This technique is contraindicated for clients with clotting disorder and on anticoagulant medications, also with various arterial and venous illnesses (varicose and spider veins) and during pregnancy.
