Slide cupping derived out of standard Chinese medicine therapy called cupping. It is traditionally used as a passive form of suctioning areas of the body into a cup like tool and releasing the suction once proper results are achieved. Slide cupping takes it one step further by inducing only 1/3 of the vacuum and applying a cold lubricant so that the cup can slide across the treatment area. This works great for tight muscles especially in the neck and shoulder area and the lower back. It is similar to a deep tissue massage but with one great advantage. It reduces the knots in the affect muscle at a faster rate in the least amount of time. Due to the cupping therapy in general, it will leave reddish to dark blue mark on the treated area. The marking will disappear within seven to 10 days. |
