UPDATE: Dry Cupping Now Available

15 April 2024

Joel can now provide Dry Cupping therapy in combination with Sports Massage, making treatments even more effective! 

🟢 What is Dry Cupping?
- Cupping therapy is one of the oldest and most effective methods of releasing toxins from the tissues and organs. 
- The therapist puts special cups on the skin to create suction. 
- This causes the tissue beneath the cup to be drawn up, causing increased blood flow to the treatment area. 
- Enhanced blood flow under the cups draws impurities and toxins away from the nearby tissues and organs towards the surface for elimination.
- Cupping reduces muscle tension and can help restore range of movement.

🟢 Benefits of Cupping:
- Removal of edema after injury.
- Removal of stagnant blood and waste products within muscle and fascia.
- Increased circulation to the muscle, fascia and skin.
- Produces a stretch reflex in the muscle, fascia and connective tissue, which increases the mobility at the joint.
- Promotes healing and the formation of new blood vessels. 
- Enhances lymphatic system. 
- Reduces joint and muscle pain.
- Stimulates sensory nerves of skin and improves autonomic nervous system.

🟠 Potential Side Effects of Cupping:
- Cupping is a low-risk therapy. The side effects will typically occur during your treatment or immediately after.
- Light-headedness, dizziness, sweating or nausea may be experienced.
- After treatment, the skin around the rim of the cup may become irritated and marked in a circular pattern.
- Marks can last for 5-20 days, because of the process of drawing stagnant blood and new blood to the surface of the skin. 
- Marks are normal and the different colours indicate the level of circulation in that area. They will fade naturally over time.

Dry Cupping is just an extra £5 on top off all Sports Massage treatments. 
Using this combined approach enables the therapist to work in two areas of the body at once (i.e. cups in one area whilst being massaged in another area).
