Massage cupping can be utilized within your massage or by itself. Benefits of massage cupping is to loosen muscles, encourage blood flow, help with inflammation, break up scar tissue, and release restrictions in the fascia.
You could have cup marks, where the cups were used, these ARE NOT bruises. If you are choosing only a cupping session it is usually for a specific issue not whole body, so usually only a 1/2 hour appointment is needed unless utilized during your longer session massage.
