A Deeper Dive Into Our Cupping Massage Technique

With the Olympics coming to a close last weekend, many people are still talking about those red spots on some of the athlete’s backs and shoulders. These spots are a result of a massage technique that several people use to treat and prevent injury, as well as promote healing for a number of other issues. Serenity Medical Spa is proud to offer this massage method for our clients. This strategy is known as cupping and the best medical spa at the Lake of the Ozarks is here to fill you in about this healing technique.

What is Cupping?

A massage method, known as cupping, has quickly grown in popularity throughout the entire world. This alternative medicine practice utilizes heated glass cups that are placed on the skin, creating a vacuum to help stimulate energy flow in the body. The cups create a suction on the surface of the skin, to help promote blood flow and encourage healing in the muscles where the technique is targeted. It is recommended to use the cupping strategy in conjunction with a deep tissue massage treatment, for optimal results.

Where Did Cupping Originate?

Although it may seem like a new treatment method, since it is rapidly growing in popularity, cupping is one of the oldest healing techniques used. This treatment method originally dates back to ancient Egyptian and Chinese cultures. Found in some of the oldest medical textbooks in the world, this method of natural healing has been around a long time.
