Pressure Cupping
“The body is a self healing organism, so it’s really about clearing things out of the way so the body can heal itself. ”
Also known as Stationary Cupping, cups are suctioned on to restricted muscle fibers or fascia to create isolated edema (blood flow) in order to hydrate the muscle and flush out metabolic waste. All while providing a deep myofascial release to free the body of restriction and allow for proper movement and function. In addition, is a powerful tool in reduction and eradication of Myofascial Trigger Points.
What is a Myofascial Trigger Point (TRP)?
It is a collection of restricted muscle fibers or connective tissue known as Fascia limiting the individualized function of muscle. All while creating pain, imbalance, and a loss of range of motion. At one time or another all of our lives have been affected by TRP’s. They are a huge contributing factor to the aches and pains we currently feel or the ones that have come and past. By the effective release of a TRP we quickly restore proper function and strength to a muscle and instantly rid the body of pain and discomfort.
The idea is if you free the TRP then you free the muslce. Free the muscle then you free the movement. Once the movement is free then you free thy self for a greater life.
