Muscle Scraping & Cupping

Image for Muscle Scraping & Cupping

Description

This 30 min session is spot specific utilizing manual tools such as scraping and cups. Muscle scraping is a therapeutic technique that uses a specialized tool to break up scar tissue and adhesions in the fascia, a connective tissue that surrounds muscles. Cupping is close to the opposite effect which involves placing cups on the skin to create suction; the negative pressure environment caused by the suction may cause a myofascial decompression to lift muscle fibers and increase blood flow to the affected areas.
