What is Cupping Therapy?
During cupping therapy, our Fort Myers, Cape Coral & Estero, FL physical therapists apply inverted rubber pumps or silicone cups to your skin. During treatment, your therapist will suction the pumps/cups onto your skin. As the air in the cup cools, a vacuum is created, causing the skin to rise and the blood vessels to enlarge. This vacuum reduces inflammation and pain while also promoting relaxation and increasing blood flow.
As a result, neural tissues, fascia, skin, ligaments, muscles, and tendons are more prone to dislocation. Cupping therapy relieves trigger points, improves circulation, and helps to break up scar tissue adhesion.
What are the Benefits of Cupping Therapy?
This treatment has numerous benefits. Cupping is a successful treatment method for a variety of conditions, including chronic neck pain, low back pain, and fibromyalgia.
It can improve your skin’s health, alleviate respiratory issues, and even aid digestion. The suction in the cups creates negative pressure, which improves hydration and blood flow to body tissues, reduces bonding, and removes excess fluids. Cupping therapy also helps to speed up recovery and alleviate symptoms associated with certain injuries and illnesses.
It is critical to understand that cupping can cause circular bruises on the skin that can last for two weeks. These bruises usually heal on their own and are not cause for concern!
