Supporting Healing Via a Vacuum Effect

Chinese cupping and similar practices have been provided by traditional healers for centuries. The process involves the implementation of suction cups on various parts of the body. This is done to create a vacuum effect, loosening muscles and supporting connective tissue. It is designed to achieve a relaxing effect and may even help an array of disorders. At Master Your Journey, Janine offers Chinese cupping therapies in Wagga Wagga. 

 

The cups Janine uses for the process are made of bamboo, glass or silicone. They are generally heated with a flame or hot water before being placed on the skin. As the cup cools down, the suction created pulls the skin and underlying tissues upward. This can facilitate circulation and pain relief. Naturally, the process will leave circular marks on the skin, which should fade shortly after the cups are removed. 

 

Chinese cupping should be considered a complementary therapy. Janine may provide it in conjunction with massage or a naturopathy treatment, personalising her cupping technique to meet your requirements. Reach out via email or Facebook to book an appointment. Catering to to clients in Wagga Wagga, Griffith, Narrandera and surrounds.

Why Arrange Chinese Cupping?

Chinese cupping may offer an array of benefits to your mental and physical wellbeing. For example, it can assist with: 

 

  • Pain relief (dull aches, back pain, etc.) 
  • Circulation issues (the vacuum created by the cups is intended to aid circulation) 
  • Reduced inflammation (which can be beneficial in the wake of injury or disease) 
  • Improved immune functionality (which may help you keep certain illnesses at bay) 
  • Relaxation (cupping is intended to relieve tension & leave the skin supple) 
  • Improved digestion (which may help with stomach cramps & similar conditions) 

 

Since Chinese cupping is a non-invasive form of treatment involving no medications or potent herbs, it can be used as a preventative measure against further physical discomfort. As such, Chinese cupping may be worth exploring if you are looking for an all-natural way to feel better.


Of course, it’s best to consult with your regular doctor regarding pain issues in conjunction with natural therapies.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does Chinese cupping feel like?

    Some people may experience a pulling sensation as the cup is attached to their skin that can last for up to five minutes. The most striking sensation experienced from cupping is likely to be the warmth of the blood flowing back into the treated area. You will probably feel some tenderness at the sight of the cups, but generally speaking, Chinese cupping should not cause any lasting pain or discomfort and most individuals find it quite enjoyable and soothing.

  • What should I do before a Chinese cupping treatment?

    First and foremost, be sure to inform your therapist about any health conditions or medical treatments that you might be undergoing. This allows the therapist to tailor your session accordingly. You should also try to dress comfortably, as the cups will remain on your body for some time and you want to avoid any distractions from feeling too hot or uncomfortable in what you're wearing. Finally, it's not recommended that you come hungry since light-headedness may occur following the treatment.

  • How long do the effects of Chinese cupping typically last?

    In general, the effects of Chinese cupping will usually last for about one to four weeks, depending on your activity level and the intensity of treatment. Many believe that regular treatments can produce longer lasting relief from chronic conditions. So, with each session, practitioners may opt to tailor the duration to suit your needs.
