Cupping is an ancient Chinese therapy in which a glass cup is applied to the skin and used to draw and hold skin and superficial muscles inside the cup. Cupping is applied over meridian and acupuncture points as well as to parts of the body that have been affected by pain. It is most commonly used over the back but is effective throughout the body e.g. on the thighs (releasing trigger points, particularly good on the IT band), calves, hips (around the hip joint and over the piriformis for an effective release that is less painful than deep tissue massage)

 and in the treatment of tennis elbow. It is the most effective deep tissue massage you can get, but without the discomfort.Cupping is based on the meridian theory of the body. It removes stagnation in the body and opens the meridians so that qi (energy) can flow freely. Cupping can be used to release rigid soft tissue, stimulate lymphatic drainage, loosen adhesions and lift connective tissue whilst promoting blood flow and aiding deep tissue repair.Cupping has a sedating effect on the nervous system, and many people find it profoundly relaxing. Many people report that muscle tension and tenderness continues to improve many hours after the session is completed. For more detail about Body Massage by Massage Center in JLT.
