Facial Cupping
Facial cupping is a safe, relaxing and remarkably effective treatment for health and beauty and is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. Women in China have been utilizing these remarkable facial cupping techniques for rejuvenation and maintenance for thousands of years.
During a facial cupping treatment, small suction cups are used to create a gentle vacuum to lift the skin and other facial tissue. Lifting the facial tissue activates the lymphatic drainage to eliminate toxins, cellular waste and excess fluid in the face and neck. Rigid muscle tissue in the face and neck is easily massaged with facial cupping.
Lines and wrinkles will plump and any scar tissue will soften after the treatment. The drainage of stagnant fluids from reservoir areas will reduce edema and chronic puffiness. The muscles of the face benefit greatly from the reduction of tension and tightness, releasing expression lines and loosening rigid muscle tissue.
In addition to its beautifying effects, facial cupping can provide significant therapeutic results for symptoms related to sinus infections, inflammation, edema and those suffering with TMJ disorders.
