Cupping is a traditional massage technique in which a vacuum is created on the skin using special cups. This method helps to release muscle tension, promote local blood circulation, and induce a sense of deep relaxation. Cupping is particularly popular for back, neck, and shoulder stiffness.

Main benefits of cupping:

• Releases muscle tension – helps alleviate stiffness and unpleasant tension in the back, neck, and shoulder areas.

• Promotes blood circulation – the vacuum stimulates local blood flow to the skin and subcutaneous tissues.

• Can alleviate muscle pain – provides temporary relief from strained and stiff muscles.

• Promotes relaxation – helps relax the body and reduce feelings of stress.

• Contributes to regeneration – can support a subjective feeling of relaxation after physical exertion.

Who is cupping suitable for?

• For people with stiff back, neck, and shoulder muscles.

• For people with sedentary jobs and repetitive strain.

• For athletes and physically active individuals.

• For those seeking a traditional massage technique and deep muscle relaxation.

• For anyone who wants to treat their body to intensive relaxation care.

When is cupping not recommended?

Cupping is not suitable for those with blood clotting disorders, thrombosis, skin infections, open wounds, or acute illnesses. Caution is also necessary when taking blood-thinning medication.

After the massage, typical circular marks may appear on the skin, which usually fade gradually within a few days to two weeks.
