Chinese Cupping North Wales
Chinese cupping is a popular method of treatment used around the world today dating back thousands of years.
Chinese cupping can come in many forms but the method used here consists of glass cups. A flame is put into the cup which draws out the air creating a vacuum when placed on the skin. The suction created by the vacuum draws the skin into the cup. This method is very safe and effective way of ridding the body of pain and stagnation. Cups can be left in place, pulled on and off quickly or slid across the skin for a deeper effect. All in all it is a deep and relaxing treatment.
How long does the treatment last?
The cupping treatment may only last 10 – 15 mins on your first session. This is dependant on your state of health and the condition being treated. An oil based massage will be done first in order to warm the muscles up ready for the deeper work and your treatment will possibly end with a neck and shoulder massage.
That seems like a short treatment. Why can I not have longer?
Cupping is a very draining treatment if used for too long. This is especially so if you are not in good health or have a high level of toxins in the body. As you progress with treatments, they can be extended each time.
Do the cups leave marks on the skin?
Clients must be aware that this method can sometimes mark the skin which can remain present for up to a week, however most people will only experience slight reddening that disappears quickly.
Does the treatment hurt?
Although it may look strange, cupping is actually a very pleasant experience if done correctly. It can be likened to receiving a deep relaxing massage with the feeling of gentle warmth.
What will I feel like after my treatment?
Tiredness can sometimes occur after treatment so it is best to listen to what your body is telling you and rest! Some on the other hand may experience a surge of energy and almost everyone will have a great nights sleep!
