Cupping is not magic, it’s not woo woo, and it doesn’t work by giving you bruises. There is science behind why these little cups work!
How cupping works:
- Your muscles and tissues are tight so they don’t move the best
- Cups create space and decompress the tissues
- Hyalauronic acid, which is like a lubrication, is released from cells in the fascia.
- And when paired with movement, the cups help tissues glide and slide easier.
Once we increase and improve range of motion then it’s important to build on that.
