Cupping therapy

Cupping therapy is also known as reverse deep tissue massage. By creating a gentle suction with silicone or glass cups, we can work into areas that may feel dense, tight, or resistant to pressure alone.The suction pressure can be adjusted between a range of gentle and intense, depending on a client's health, goals, and/or preferences. It’s used to help ease muscle tension and encourage tissue release. Stationary and gliding cupping are often combined to massage multiple areas of the body while creating a “dynamic melting” effect. Some mild discoloration can occur, but it is not permanent.

Please note: Massages, especially deep tissue treatments, do not need to be painful to be effective. If you're flinching through the pain, it can lead to muscle guarding, which is counterproductive. There’s no studies showing that aggressive treatments are more effective. I prefer to work deeply yet gently. All massage styles engage the nervous system through touch, and some clients respond better to lighter pressure, while others benefit from deeper or slower work. A combination of techniques is often preferred by most.
