During a treatment, you can feel tightness from the suction of the cups but it feels amazing and very releasing. It is often described as feeling similar to a deep tissue massage but instead of downward pressure, there is a decompression of the muscular tissues.

It is common to have marks left on the skin that resemble a bruise after a cupping session that can last for up to a week, depending on each individual. The marks left behind is the old stagnant blood that has been brought to the surface and new blood will be replacing it. As time goes on and the area starts to heal and feel better, the marks will become lighter and disappear a lot faster.

No, and most often you forget they are there. After treatment, most patients feel extremely relaxed, 24-48 hours later you make feel a muscular soreness, similar to what you would feel after a tough workout. There is lactic acid that is built up in our muscular tension being released and re-absorbed by the body. Even though you felt relaxed, there was a lot of work done to your body so you feel as if you worked out.
