Myofascial Cupping Massage

Myofascial Cupping Massage involves placed the silicon cups on the skin to create suction for 5-15 minutes, or gently moved across the skin which stimulates the circulation of blood, breaks up adhesions, and creates a pathway for toxins to be drawn out of the body through the lymphatic system. In Chinese medicine it is believed that the marks more darker, the more stagnation of Qi and blood. Stagnation leads to pain and dysfunction or imbalance within tissues, so we want to clear that stuff out before it causes problems. Caution for cup marks may take a few days to a week to fade completely. Caution in keeping area covered from extreme changes in temperature( hot sauna or cold AC ) directly after a treatment. In Chinese medicine cupping opens your pores, making you susceptible to catching a cold. Not used if you have thin or damaged skin, or if you are taking blood thinners.
