Brief Explanation of Cupping Therapy:
Cupping therapy is an ancient technique that uses specially designed cups, typically made of glass, plastic, or silicone, to create suction on the skin’s surface. This suction mobilises blood flow and promotes healing within the body.
Cupping therapy may be beneficial for various injuries or health conditions, including:
- Muscular pain and tension
- Chronic back pain
- Neck and shoulder stiffness
- Sports injuries (e.g., strains and sprains)
- Fibromyalgia
- Arthritis and joint pain
- Migraines and tension headaches
- Sciatica
- Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis)
- Circulatory issues
How Does It Work?
Dry cupping is the more commonly practised form of cupping therapy. Here’s how Dry
Cupping therapy is typically performed:
- Cup Selection: The therapist selects cups and will choose an appropriate size for the treatment area.
- Preparation: Mechanical pumps or suction devices may create a vacuum in modern cupping.
- Application: The therapist quickly places the cup upside-down on the skin. As the air inside the cup cools, it creates suction, drawing the skin and superficial muscle layer upwards into the cup.
- Suction Level Adjustment: The therapist can adjust the level of suction by releasing air, allowing them to control the intensity of the treatment.
- Duration: Cups are typically left in place for a few minutes, when you may feel a gentle pulling or stretching sensation. The therapist monitors the client’s comfort and response.
- Removal: After the desired treatment duration, the therapist removes the cups by gently pressing the skin or using a release valve to break the suction.
- Post-Treatment Care: Depending on the client’s condition and the therapist’s recommendations, post-treatment care may involve applying topical ointments, oils, or lotions to soothe the skin.
