Myofascial Cupping Massage
Using the combined techniques of Cupping Therapy and Connective Tissue Massage(CTM), this treatment can be ideal for those looking to relieve chronic muscle tension, improve posture , enable better range of motion, and increase circulation.
This massage mainly focuses on the myofascial structure, which consists of continuous and broad planes that run throughout the entire body and supports the skeletal system and soft tissues(muscles/tendons).
Cupping is an ancient form of therapy which involves placing cups onto the skin, creating suction to the area.
By using the cups with both stationary and moving techniques, they can be used to target fascia and muscle tissue and encourage circulation to relieve areas that may be experiencing pain or tension.
Your therapist will utilize both Cupping Therapy and a medium-firm pressured "stretching or pulling" CTM technique to help lengthen and improve the strength and condition of the fascia, then follow with deep tissue work to the muscle area.
*please note- After Cupping, your skin may have discoloration ranging in color from pink to deep red or purple. These discolorations from Cupping are completely normal and will usually fade after a few hours, while others may take up to two weeks to disappear completely. Hydration and rest after your massage can help the marks to fade more quickly.*
