Myofascial Cupping Therapy - Portsmouth, NH
Myofascial Cupping (MC) is a unique treatment that uses suction to lift tissue as the cup is moved by a Sports Chiropractor or Physical Therapist, to decompress underlying tissue. Cupping is widely used in athletic training, physical therapy, and sports injuries clinics around the country. It is also being used in the Olympic games for pre and post-workout recovery and detoxification, specifically to decompress adhesions and scar tissue, relax muscle spasms, decrease trigger point pain, and decrease tissue changes and inflammation following trauma. Cumulative treatments increase muscle endurance, circulation, and lymphatic drainage and enhance the body's overall ability to recover from workouts and strenuous activity. There are two types of cupping techniques that are the most popular: stationary and gliding cups. Stationary cups are where one or several cups are placed in the treatment zone for 5-10 minutes. Gliding cups is when a topical ointment or liniment is placed on the skin first and the cups are gently moved across the skin, usually along meridians or fascial / muscle planes.
