Cupping allows us to use negative pressure with movement to stimulate blood flow & neuromuscular re-education through fascial planes. Tool work such as gua sha helps to do the same, just on a more superficial level.

Not everyone will bruise! It’s fully dependent on the area and the person. The bruising is on a superficial level and very rarely hurts. Depending on the color of the bruise, some will go away in 2 days, others in 5.

NOTE: The color of a bruise does NOT determine whether it “worked” or not. We don’t judge based off of color, we judge on change in movement/range of motion.

ABSOLUTELY. We don’t discriminate. This type of bodywork is for anyone who moves their body and wants to continue moving well.

But, as a reminder, you’ll be putting in work too ;) we’ll at least be working as a team to get you moving your best.
