Cupping
Cupping therapy has been around for thousands of years originating from Chinese medicine. Cups are placed on the body and suction is created using negative pressure. Similar to deep tissue, the layers beneath are instead stretched upward creating space in tissues. The colored spots that may be seen after is blood flow rising to the surface to help promote circulation. Muscle tension and pain are then relieved as well. This can be accomplished by leaving the cups stationary, or with active movements while cups are on.
