🔥 Fire cupping is an ancient healing practice used all over the world to ease sore muscles and increase range of movement. It may look like a magic trick, and honestly we do feel like magicians while practicing it, but it’s all very scientific. We use the flame to create a vacuum in the glass cup, and that vacuum is the magic that eases your tension.
While a traditional massage works by pressing into the muscle, fire cupping uses negative pressure to pull tension up and out. It’s the perfect counter-balance, relaxing the fascia and creating space in the body where there was once tension.
Fire cupping is an add-on service that you can choose when booking your appointment for massage therapy. It penetrates the effects of your massage deeper into your body. If you’re the type of person who always needs more pressure, or you feel like the effects of the massage are gone too quickly, try adding fire cupping next time 🔥
