FACIAL CUPPING // So, besides the many kick ass benefits for your head and skin, this feels so good y’all! Even with these at-home facial cupping sets you can buy online you can really feel and see great results from 5-10 minutes of this practice. This video is crazy fast but you can see how rosy my cheeks get and your skin starts to glow after just a few minutes. ☺️. Some pointers on DIY facial cupping: ◻️Pay attention to the direction in which I’m gliding the cups - always up towards the hairline to create lift in the face. ◻️Pinch then place for that negative pressure to pull your skin up to create suction. ◻️Keep the cup moving/gliding so as not to leave lasting marks on your pretty face. (The facial cups you buy from amazon are mostly pretty gentle / weak so there is less risk of bruising with these little guys anyway.)◻️Use the small sizes for delicate eye and lip area. View my IG story for a more in depth look at using these cups at home and how they can improve your skin radiance, allergies, headaches & more. ✌🏼. .

Releasing tension from the upper back and neck with 〰CUPPING〰. Cupping is one of the best deep-tissue therapies available. It’s a deeply relieving modality for tight muscles, emotional & physical blockages; sedating the nervous system, opening the lungs, transforming phlegm in the chest, chronic muscular pain & inflammation, and to simply to get the Qi and blood flow moving in your body. I practice glass fire cupping with gliding or fixed placement, depending on what your body needs - and I absolutely love it. The negative pressure that cupping provides can pull out lingering toxins from the muscles and tissue up to 4 inches below the skin level - leaving you feeling so relaxed and loose. Take your bodywork to the next level. ❤️

Cupping is magic. Have you had it before? It was originally used by Taoist medical herbalists and was a popular treatment for the royal family. Cupping healers are found throughout many cultures across the world. It is oh-so-good for pain and tension relief, but can also promote deep relaxation, help respiratory issues and colds, improve digestion & lymph circulation, and reduce headaches. One therapy I love to provide in my practice. ⭐️

He sported his cupping marks this year while competing and it’s making ALL the rounds on the internet. Read about his (and other athletes’) experience with cupping and how it can help improve blood circulation, relieve pain, and relax muscle tissue. I love seeing these old wellness therapies making splashes in the modern world!
