Whether you are seeking a treatment to enhance your beauty or a holistic approach to addressing pain management, our long list of treatments is designed to improve your overall wellness and wellbeing. One popular way to boost your wellbeing is through cupping massage offered at our tranquil and relaxing spa. 

What is Cupping Massage?

Cupping massage is an ancient treatment, mastered and passed down through generations for thousands of years. It blends the science of traditional deep tissue massage with the benefits of negative pressure to relieve stress, stimulate healing, and promote overall health and wellness.

How Does Cupping Work?

Cupping massage is a form of alternative medicine that is popular for its ability to treat a variety of concerns in addition to boosting your overall health and wellness. Cupping devices can be made from many different materials, like glass, bamboo, or ceramic. At Nouveau Day Spa, we use contemporary silicone cups for our cupping massages. When the cup is applied, the skin is drawn up into the cup, pulling up toxins, histamines, and stagnant blood to the surface of the skin using a process called “negative pressure”. A mark may be left on your skin, but it will fade as the body carries away all surface impurities. 

Benefits of Cupping Massage

While Cupping Massage may seem like a new concept to some, its benefits certainly aren’t. Benefits of cupping massage can include the following:

  • Deep Tissue Relief: Daily routines, from sitting at a desk all day to engaging in sports, can lead to a variety of aches and pains. Using a combination of suction and movement, cupping massage can effectively reach the deeper tissue layers, relieving muscular tension in the same way a deep tissue massage does.
  • Stress Buster: Cupping massage can be a great way to foster relaxation by reducing cortisol levels, your body’s stress hormone, and leaving you relaxed and rejuvenated. Not only does this add to improvements regarding your physical wellness, but it can boost your overall wellness too. 
  • Increased Blood Flow: By using negative pressure, cupping massage can draw the flow of your blood to certain areas of the body, helping facilitate healing and reduce pain. This can also help reduce inflammation. 

Side Effects of Cupping Massage

Cupping massage is a generally safe technique for boosting one’s overall wellness. Depending on your provider’s cupping massage method, there are some potential side effects. Although rare, some of the risks associated with cupping massage include burns, bruises, mild discomfort, and skin infection.
