Get answers to common questions about Cupping Therapy Session.

Your therapist will assess areas of tension, apply cups to targeted muscles, and may move or leave cups stationary. You may feel suction, warmth, and pressure. Sessions often include gentle release techniques and aftercare guidance to maximize benefits.

Cupping often leaves circular marks or temporary discoloration where suction was applied; these are not harmful and usually fade within several days to two weeks. Intensity and skin reaction vary by person and cupping level used.
