Here are some great benefits of cupping.
Increased energy flow. Cupping can be used to increase energy flow inside the body. By targeting specific parts of the body, stagnant, negative energy are brought to the surface, allowing the free flow of “Qi” or energy to flow through those points.
The cups can be placed over the traditional energy collection points, which are also stimulated during acupuncture and shiatsu massage. The Chinese believe that a healthy energy flow is thought to improve both the physical and mental well-being of the client.
Pain relief. Experiments have shown that patients who received cupping sessions found that it relieved chronic pain and helped improve range of motion to injured areas.
The clients who experienced this pain relief reported that the effects lasted longer than the pain relief from other remedies.
Loosening the muscles. Cupping has also shown to loosen the muscles and reduce muscle stiffness to the affected areas. Loosened muscles and bring an influx of blood to the area and softens the underlying muscle tissues, leading to increased flexibility and a better sense of mobility.
Relaxation. Like other massage techniques, cupping can be incredibly relaxing. The work is usually performed in soothing setting and the therapists touch is very light. Soothing music and ambient sounds can be incorporated to improve the whole experience.
