Recently, several high-profile athletes and celebrities have brought awareness to the Thai cupping technique, leaving some persons wondering whether Thai cupping is a passing fad. It isn’t!
Thai cupping massage is a blend of eastern holistic care and modern science. By merging the two, this treatment focuses on reducing stagnation and restriction in problem areas. It does this by breaking down adhesions and knots while helping to increase fluid circulation (i.e., the flow of blood and lymph). It also helps to reduce the build-up of cellular waste, toxins, inflammation, and excess fluids in the body. There are no other treatments like it!

Cupping has been around for thousands of years with evidence of its use going as far back as Ancient Egypt. It is a highly specialized treatment with immense benefits.
Today, Thai body work experts use either heat, or a special suction tool to draw skin up into the cup, creating a suction. The cup is left in place for 5 to 10 minutes and then removed. While the cup is still attached and the suction still intact, the massage therapist can create a soothing effect by gliding the cup over your skin.
The suctioning force pulls cellular waste, toxins, and excess fluids from deep within muscles and other soft tissue, bringing them to the body’s surface. Once there, they can be more efficiently disposed of by the lymphatic system. Cupping does tend to leave marks on the skin, but these usually disappear within three to ten days.
Cupping is often used for pain relief and in sports recovery. Other conditions which may be alleviated by cupping therapy include chronic coughing, nasal congestion, difficulty breathing, and acne.
