cupping massage

An ancient Chinese method aids modern muscle tension and pain using a vacuum applied directly to the affected area.  It relieves stagnation and is used for releasing toxins, edema/swelling,  pain, tension and stress from the body.

Contracted muscles will relax releasing trapped toxins that cause pain and stiffness while re-establishing circulation and bringing in fresh nutrients. It is a very relaxing technique that enhances lymphatic drainage while reducing inflammation and swelling.  Works wonders following surgery to reduce swelling,  increase healing.

Often, areas of tension or injury are too tense or tender to treat with  neuromuscular/deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy or cross-fiber friction. Orthopedic cupping is a gentle, non-invasive way to release fascial holding patterns, loosen scar tissue, and soften tissue  so that  specific massage techniques can be comfortably applied. Orthopedic cupping is  effective for chronic pain, tightness, and spasms that are resistant to traditional therapies as well as post surgical procedures.

After dropping 40 pounds, Donna had loose skin.  She decided to  have the excess skin from her legs removed.  They got swollen and infection set in resulting in a lot of pain and scarring.  She had the excess skin from her arms removed next which went much better as she included Orthopedic cupping as soon as the incisions healed.  She experienced less pain, swelling, scarring and quicker healing time.   She commented that she wished she had done this with her legs too.
