Therapeutic Cupping

ABOUT THERAPEUTIC CUPPING
Therapeutic cupping at Formira Massage & Beauty in West Hunsbury, Northampton is a specialist treatment that uses suction cups applied to the skin to help release muscle tension and encourage blood flow to affected areas.
It is often used alongside massage techniques to support deeper release of tight or restricted tissues.
This treatment is adapted to each client and can vary in intensity depending on individual needs and tolerance.

WHAT IT HELPS WITH
Therapeutic cupping may support:

• Muscular tension and tightness
• Restricted movement
• Back, shoulder, and neck discomfort
• Postural strain
• Exercise or activity-related muscle fatigue
• General stiffness in soft tissues 

HOW THE TREATMENT WORKS
Specialised cups are placed on the skin to create a gentle suction effect.
This helps lift soft tissue, improve circulation, and encourage release of tight muscle areas.
The treatment may involve static cupping (cups left in place) or moving cupping (cups gently glided across the skin), depending on the area being treated.

BENEFITS

• Reduced muscle tightness
• Improved circulation to targeted areas

• Support for physical recovery
