Massage and cupping are relaxing therapies that help with muscle tension and overall well-being. Massage involves a therapist using their hands to knead and rub your muscles, which can relieve pain, reduce stress, and improve circulation. Cupping uses small suction cups placed on your skin to create a vacuum effect, drawing blood to the surface and easing muscle tightness. You might feel a gentle pulling sensation from cupping and some mild soreness afterward, but it’s usually soothing. Both treatments can enhance relaxation, improve flexibility, and help your body recover from stress or physical strain.
