Therapeutic massage with suction cups is an ancient method – it is mentioned in the writings of Hippocrates – and is still widely practised today.
By creating a vacuum and negative pressure, cupping massage can help drain retained fluids, stimulate circulation to the muscles and skin and loosen tight connective and soft tissue. It is also popular as part of an anti-cellulite routine and for facial massage, where it can help the skin look firmer and fresher.
