Massage cupping is an ancient form of alternative medicine in which a therapist puts special cups on your skin for a few minutes to create suction. The benefits of massage cupping are numerous, including pain management, decreasing inflammation, increasing blood flow, myofascial release, relaxation and well-being, and as a type of deep-tissue massage. You can choose a full 60 minutes of cupping (with the exception of prenatal, which is contraindicated), or this can be done as an add-on to any massage.
