Cupping therapy can actually be dated back to 3000BC, and since then has been used as an official method for short-term pain relief and for increased movement and blood flow.  People get it for many purposes, including to help with pain, inflammation, blood flow, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage.

Cupping by your Myofusion therapist invigorates local circulation of blood in the area being treated, resolving swelling, pain, and tension. By drawing impurities to the surface, it removes toxins. From a Western physiology perspective, cupping loosens connective tissue or fascia and stimulated blood flow to the surface.

Cupping therapy is carried out by:

• The massage therapist will find a tight and/or sore area of the body
• Pressure is applied to the area by suctioning a cup onto the skin
• Pressure builds in the area as blood runs to the surface
• The cup remains on the body for a few minutes, depending on both the size of the cup and the amount of pain the muscle has been causing
