Let’s talk cupping marks!
Contrary to popular belief, cupping marks are not always even from one side of the body to the other. When applied, a therapist will seek out the areas needing relief and apply the cups accordingly. So, uneven does not mean ineffective; quite the opposite actually! It means properly targeted work.
The color of these marks also tells us quite a lot about the client’s stagnation areas. The darker the mark, the more stagnant the area. This gives us a visual map of what areas are in need of the most work.
If you have any questions about cupping therapy, please don’t hesitate to reach out 🙏🏼
