During your Fire Cupping Therapy session, our skilled practitioners will apply heated glass or silicone cups to specific areas of your body, creating a gentle suction that draws the skin and superficial muscle layer upward into the cup. The cups may remain stationary or be moved around to target different areas.
As the cups create suction, they promote blood circulation to the treated areas, helping to deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues and remove toxins. This process can alleviate muscle tension, reduce pain, and promote relaxation.
Benefits of Fire Cupping Therapy:
- Relieve Migraine: Fire cupping therapy is thought to help reduce and relieve migraines by minimizing pressure in the neck and upper back. Promoting increased circulation, this self-care therapy helps your body heal itself.
- Treatment for Varicose Veins: As varicose veins affect blood flow from the muscles to the heart, fire cupping therapy can bring a much-needed oxygen flow back to the required area and may make the veins appear lighter in colour immediately.
- Reduce Inflammation: A fire cupping massage can help to increase circulation and blood flow to affected areas of the body. This, in turn, helps to target and reduce inflammation.
- Treatment for Sports Injury: Since fire cupping therapy acts as a reverse massage, it uses suction rather than pressure to ease muscle aches. Fire cupping combines intense heat and strong suction to help guide fresh blood to painful areas of the body, which can significantly benefit athletes. This helps to speed up recovery and reduce the risk of injury.
- Relieve Cold Symptoms: Fire cupping is also thought to help free you from cold and flu symptoms, as it pulls toxins out of your body. It can affect tissue up to 4 inches under the skin, so if you place a fire cup over the lungs, it may dislodge any mucus-filled toxins that are stuck inside.
