Cupping
A non-invasive alternative to traditional myofascial cupping therapy
What is it?
This is a non-invasive alternative to traditional myofascial cupping therapy. These pods (RockPods) use decompressive technology to loosen and lift connective tissue and increase blood flow and lymph to the skin and muscles- stimulating the body’s natural healing process to treat chronic pain, relieve tension and sedate the nervous system.
What are the benefits?
- Decreased pain
- Promotion of healing
- Improved blood flow
- Improved range of motion
- Improve the function of connective tissue
- Neurosensory stimulation – nerve stimulation
How does it work?
‘RockPods’ allow the body to gain extensive benefits as it allows the body to move whilst being placed on.
They can be used for;
Nerve Gliding – Gliding the cups on the body when suction is present allows nerves to be released and pain to be reduced.
Mobilisation – Movement of the body both done by the patient and assisted by the therapist. Therapist assisted manipulation will help with precision mapping (connecting awareness of the brain to body), movement retraining and postural alignment awareness.
The Pods also allow for a deep myofascial release of points, letting you gain the same, or if not better, benefits as a massage.
Are there conditions where we may not be able to treat?
- Skin lesions/ inflammation of the skin
- Open wounds
- Lymph nodes
- Deep vein thrombosis
- Varicose veins
- Bone fractures
- Cancer patients
- Haemophilia
- Organ failure
- Body orifices
- Pregnancy after week 21
