Cupping therapy might be best known for the temporary circular marks it leaves behind — lovingly referred to as “octopus hickeys” — but what’s happening under the surface is where the real magic is.
Unlike traditional massage that compresses tissue, cupping gently lifts the skin and underlying fascia. This decompression helps increase blood flow, improve tissue mobility, and release long-held restrictions — making it especially powerful for chronic muscle tension and stubborn pain patterns.
Cupping therapy can help with:
• Chronic neck, shoulder, and back tension
• Tight or restricted fascia
• Old injuries that won’t quite let go
• Limited range of motion
• Muscle recovery and circulation
🐙 Those marks? They’re not bruises and they don’t mean damage. They’re simply a sign of increased circulation and stagnation being brought to the surface — and they fade on their own within a few days.
✨ The goal isn’t the marks.
✨ The goal is healthier, more mobile tissue.
If you’ve tried everything and your body still feels “stuck,” cupping therapy may be the missing piece.
